Flights to Flims, Graubünden from NT$7,750

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

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and don't forget to pack a cardigan in case you get cold. Always go with flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Flims, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
