Flights to Bahla, Ad Dakhiliyah ‍Governorate from NT$5,184

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Bahla escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organized before your flight will help make your trip to Bahla easy and painless. Below are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
