Flights to Pearisburg, Virginia from NT$45,669

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

• It's simple --- first, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and pack a cardigan in case it gets cool in the cabin. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Pearisburg a pleasure. We've rounded up some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
