Flights to Quimbaya, Quindío from NT$8,522

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a pleasant start to your time in Quimbaya.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights may also help.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your getaway to Quimbaya quick and painless. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
