Flights to Cretas, Aragon from NT$6,165

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a ball in Cretas in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Cretas, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
