Flights to Andria, Puglia from NT$27,924

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Andria could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Andria, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? 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 permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
