Flights to Merodio, Penamellera Baja from NT$30,199

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Merodio could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Merodio, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
