Flights to Parthenonas, Sithonia from NT$33,651

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Parthenonas could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to pack a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Parthenonas easy and painless. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
