Flights to Caranavi, La Paz from NT$72,690

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Caranavi could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a jacket in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Caranavi easy and painless. We've rounded up some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. 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 valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
