Flights to Burlington, Pennsylvania from NT$88,385

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Burlington vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Burlington in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring 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), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
