Flights to Albinia, Orbetello from NT$3,073

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Albinia escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your trip to Albinia a pleasure. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
