Flights to San Ramon, Matagalpa Department from NT$63,686

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to San Ramon could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to San Ramon a piece of cake. Below you'll find some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
