Flights to Trecenta, Veneto from NT$23,117

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of handy hints that will help get your Trecenta escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Trecenta, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
