Flights to Antonci, Porec from NT$8,112

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Antonci vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Antonci, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
