Flights to Lage Zwaluwe, North Brabant from NT$7,377

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Lage Zwaluwe escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

The secret is to be organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Lage Zwaluwe in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things 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 minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
