Flights to Wycliffe, British Columbia from NT$6,695

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Wycliffe. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Wycliffe, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, 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.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
