Flights to Lyle, Washington from NT$3,743

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Lyle vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Next, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

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

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
