Flights to Claiborne, St. Michaels from NT$6,210

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips that will help get your Claiborne escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave 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) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Claiborne easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Have your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
