Flights to Yadjin, Atherton from NT$7,523

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Yadjin vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Yadjin in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• 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 luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
