Flights to Glen, New Hampshire from NT$17,132

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of handy hints that will get your Glen escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Glen quick and painless. Check out our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Have your boarding pass and passport close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
