Cheap Flights to Omis from CA $861

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring Omis before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Omis, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
