Flights to Aksaray, Aksaray from NT$17,025

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Aksaray could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The secret is to be organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Aksaray in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well sort 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 faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
