Flights to San Miguel, Buenos Aires from NT$29,294

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to San Miguel could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and wear flat, closed-toe footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organized before your flight can make your trip to San Miguel quick and painless. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
