Flights to Quanzhou, Fujian from NT$4,307

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in Quanzhou in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are your best bet.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Quanzhou in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
