Flights to Waverley, Nova Scotia from NT$9,747

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Waverley vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Waverley easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
