Flights to Chalok, Setiu from NT$14,239

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organized. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Chalok vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Chalok quick and painless. We've compiled some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
