Flights to Lingui, Guilin from NT$3,572

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Lingui could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Lingui, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• 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 zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
