Flights to St. George, Kansas from NT$49,328

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your St. George vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to St. George a breeze. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. 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 in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
