Flights to Kingston, Georgia from NT$12,118

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Kingston. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Kingston a breeze. Here are some useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
