Flights to Saray, Tekirdag from NT$13,635

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Saray could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

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 liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Saray in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Have your ID and boarding pass close by. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
