Flights to Georgioupolis, Apokoronas from NT$66,094

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Georgioupolis vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and bring a pullover just in case you get chilly. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

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

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
