Flights to Lythrodontas, Cyprus from NT$10,343

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of handy tips that will help get your Lythrodontas vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and pick flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Lythrodontas, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
