Flights to Fiskeså, Rimbo from NT$8,696

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a worry-free start to your vacation in Fiskeså. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and opt for flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Fiskeså in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Keep your passport and travel documents within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
