Flights to Guasave, Sinaloa from NT$57,778

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Guasave could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The trick is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Guasave in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
