Flights to Huraa, Kaafu Atoll from NT$6,753

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Huraa.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your main priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Huraa a piece of cake. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your passport and travel documents at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
