Flights to Loon, Central Visayas from NT$1,640

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Loon could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case you get cold. Pick flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Loon, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
