Flights to Angkor Chey, Kampot from NT$7,869

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these handy hints that will get your Angkor Chey vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Angkor Chey, here you come:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product 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.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
