Flights to Kuet Chang, Mae Taeng from NT$2,768

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Kuet Chang could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Kuet Chang, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite 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're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
