Flights to Anfu County, Ji'an from NT$11,053

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Anfu County escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Anfu County a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring 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), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
