Flights to Albany, Prince Edward Island from NT$33,960

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and exploring Albany in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Albany a piece of cake. Here are some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
