Flights to Dunbeath, Scotland from NT$2,711

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Dunbeath could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Dunbeath a pleasure. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
