Flights to Rougemont, Canton of Vaud from NT$3,876

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Rougemont.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and take a sweater in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

As savvy 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 Rougemont in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Keep your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container 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 bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
