Flights to Mulan County, Harbin from NT$5,820

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Mulan County.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before your flight can make your trip to Mulan County easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
