Flights to Sala, Nitra from

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Sala could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Sala a pleasure. Check out our handy hints for a swift journey through security:

• Have your ID and boarding pass close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
