Flights to Taytay, Mimaropa from NT$4,072

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your vacation in Taytay.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple --- be organized. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Taytay, here you come:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
