Flights to Rawlings, Maryland from NT$15,357

If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your vacation in Rawlings. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Rawlings before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
