Flights to Ord, Sleat from NT$29,543

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and exploring Ord in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Ord easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• 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 trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
