Flights to Atlantic Beach, Jacksonville from NT$9,135

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Atlantic Beach could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The secret is to be well prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Atlantic Beach in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Keep your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
