Flights to Huvafen Fushi, Kaafu Atoll from NT$15,057

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Huvafen Fushi could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Huvafen Fushi in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? 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, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
