Flights to Ilz, Styria from NT$9,040

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Ilz vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe footwear like sneakers.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce 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 organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Ilz in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
