Flights to Corona, New York from NT$27,873

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Corona vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Next, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and bring a pullover in case you get cold. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Corona a pleasure. Below you'll find some handy hints for a stress-free journey through security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. 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.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
