Flights to Waverly, Kansas from NT$4,994

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Waverly could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural-fiber clothing and pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

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

• Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• 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 gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
