Flights to Millers Dale, Buxton from NT$5,540

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Millers Dale vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Millers Dale in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• 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. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
