Flights to Volvera, Turin from NT$8,757

If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a stress-free start to your vacation in Volvera.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and pack a cardigan just in case you get chilly. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Volvera a breeze. Here are some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, 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 electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky 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 luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
