Flights to Amboy, Washington from NT$5,530

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Amboy could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Amboy in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Have your ID and travel documents within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
