Flights to Arivaca, Arizona from NT$12,228

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your vacation in Arivaca. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Arivaca quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
