Flights to Rosewood, Goldsboro from NT$13,728

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Rosewood escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Rosewood easy and painless. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine 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-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
