Flights to Kirkheaton, Huddersfield from NT$15,778

If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Kirkheaton. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Kirkheaton before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with a new 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-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
