Flights to Moroka, Johannesburg from NT$21,464

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips that will help get your Moroka vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Moroka easy and painless. Below are some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Keep your ID and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product 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.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
