Flights to Hazeldonk, Breda from NT$17,674

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will get your Hazeldonk vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
• A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Hazeldonk quick and painless. Below are some top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
