Flights to Somers, Montana from NT$6,927

If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your vacation in Somers. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

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 liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Somers a piece of cake. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often 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 in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
