Flights to Camarda, L'Aquila from NT$8,055

If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a stress-free start to your time in Camarda. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting 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.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Camarda, here you come:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
