Flights to Brule Point, Nova Scotia from NT$2,912

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and enjoying Brule Point in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pack a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Brule Point a piece of cake. We've rounded up some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
