Flights to Entwistle, Alberta from NT$2,155

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Entwistle could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Entwistle a breeze. Check out our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
