Flights to Trinita, Piedmont from NT$10,055

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will get your Trinita escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Trinita, here you come:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
