Flights to Aronda, Sawantwadi from NT$2,568

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will get your Aronda escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Aronda, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
