Flights to Grafton, from NT$25,138

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Grafton could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Grafton, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
