Flights to Brainard, Nassau from NT$30,510

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Brainard could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up, and pick slightly roomy, flat footwear like sneakers.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Brainard in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
