Flights to Westpoint, Indiana from NT$45,886

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy hints that will get your Westpoint vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Westpoint, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
