Flights to Sea View, Prince Edward Island from NT$5,762

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. We've put together a list of handy hints that will get your Sea View vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Sea View, here you come:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product 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.
• 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.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
