Flights to Mandeville, Manchester from NT$192,721

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Mandeville vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your trip to Mandeville a pleasure. Read through our useful tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
