Flights to Tideswell, Buxton from NT$4,458

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will get your Tideswell vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Tideswell in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Have your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
