Flights to Greenland, New Hampshire from NT$30,909

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Greenland escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out Greenland, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
