Flights to Canaan, Indiana from NT$26,881

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Canaan.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan 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 and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

The secret is to be well organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Canaan in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
