Flights to Port Hope, Michigan from NT$41,955

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Port Hope could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• 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, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Port Hope before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
