Flights to Yoro, Gifu Prefecture from NT$5,940

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of Yoro in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable 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 aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and go for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Yoro in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
