Flights to Izabelin, Warsaw from NT$15,621

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a pain-free start to your vacation in Izabelin.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Izabelin quick and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by 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 headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
