Flights to Ubli, Lastovo from NT$3,605

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Ubli escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and take a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Ubli in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• 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 your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often 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 single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
