Flights to Jonesville, North Carolina from NT$14,478

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will get your Jonesville escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your trip to Jonesville a pleasure. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
