Flights to Louey, Occitanie from NT$27,010

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and discovering Louey in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality 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 raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Louey quick and painless. Check out our top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
