Flights to Murtas, Andalusia from NT$3,277

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Murtas could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's all about being organized. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Murtas, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
