Flights to Foini, Cyprus from NT$13,519

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Foini vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Foini, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required 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 the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
