Flights to Shohola, Pennsylvania from NT$27,030

If you're not prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your vacation in Shohola.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and take a jacket just in case you get chilly. Always go with roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Shohola in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
