Flights to Uig, Scotland from NT$28,990

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Uig before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cool. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Uig before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
