Flights to Arsina, Lucca from NT$9,302

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Arsina vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul 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 organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Arsina a breeze. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, 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, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
