Flights to Trenton, Detroit from NT$4,327

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your Trenton vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Trenton, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on 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 inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
