Flights to Kampung Behor Pisang, Arau from NT$13,007

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips that will help get your Kampung Behor Pisang vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive 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 airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Kampung Behor Pisang in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne? 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.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
