Flights to Daulagala, Central Province from NT$6,627

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Daulagala vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and wear flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Daulagala a piece of cake. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
