Flights to Lerna, Illinois from NT$45,472

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your time in Lerna. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Lerna quick and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
