Flights to Fieberbrunn, Tyrol from NT$2,851

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a pain-free start to your time in Fieberbrunn. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Fieberbrunn, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
