Flights to Dharavandhoo, Baa Atoll from NT$15,007

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Dharavandhoo could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Dharavandhoo a breeze. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Have your passport and travel documents handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
