Flights to Greenbrae, California from NT$2,316

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and seeing the best of Greenbrae before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organized. We've put together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Greenbrae, here you come:

• Be sure to have your passport and travel documents at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
