Flights to Summerton, South Carolina from NT$36,046

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Summerton could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Summerton a pleasure. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
