Flights to Paupack, Pennsylvania from NT$12,275

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Paupack vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

It's all about being organized. We've rounded up some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Paupack, here you come:

• Have your passport and travel documents at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item 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.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
