Flights to Los Cajuiles, Santa Cruz del Seibo from NT$49,828

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Los Cajuiles vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and wear easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

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

• Have your ID and boarding pass close by. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your hand 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 jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
