Flights to Leenane, County Mayo from NT$45,952

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and enjoying Leenane in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The trick is to be well organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Leenane before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your 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 in no time.
• Traveling with a new cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
