Flights to Yangjiang, Guangdong from NT$7,031

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Yangjiang.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are always good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your trip to Yangjiang a pleasure. Here are some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
