Flights to Pinedo, Valencia from NT$26,420

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Pinedo could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you take the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being organized before your flight will make your getaway to Pinedo quick and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
