Flights to Gleneagles, Auchterarder from NT$2,070

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Gleneagles vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

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

The answer is simple — be organized. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Gleneagles, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
