Flights to Pekutatan, Bali from NT$3,985

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Pekutatan could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• 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 socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Pekutatan a piece of cake. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
