Flights to Broad Run, Virginia from NT$8,203

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Broad Run.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy --- first, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant 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 can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Pick roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

It's easy --- be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Broad Run, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
