Flights to Thung Prang, Sichon from NT$2,685

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Thung Prang could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Go for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Thung Prang, here you come:

• Keep your travel documents and passport close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with a new perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
