Flights to Rui'an, Wenzhou from NT$7,426

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Rui'an could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and wander the aisles as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Rui'an a piece of cake. Check out our top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
