Flights to Ulster, Pennsylvania from NT$81,321

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ulster could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Ulster a breeze. We've compiled some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually 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 in the cabin.
