Flights to Kuet Chang, Mae Taeng from NT$1,925

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Kuet Chang escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good choice.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organized. We've compiled some top tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Kuet Chang, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
