Flights to Saltsburg, Pennsylvania from NT$64,077

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Saltsburg could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Saltsburg before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything 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.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
