Flights to Dien Duong, Da Nang from NT$2,873

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these handy hints that will get your Dien Duong escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before your flight will help make your trip to Dien Duong a pleasure. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on 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 in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
