Flights to Goshen, Alabama from NT$34,633

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. Take a peek at these handy hints that will help get your Goshen vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

The trick is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Goshen before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
