Flights to Singaraja, West Java from NT$6,071

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Singaraja vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

The secret is to be prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Singaraja in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
