Flights to Apollosa, Campania from NT$6,109

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your vacation in Apollosa.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and bring a cardigan in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Apollosa in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
