Flights to Joluchuca, Petatlan from NT$97,875

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Joluchuca could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your trip to Joluchuca a pleasure. We've rounded up some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
