Flights to Avon, New York from NT$4,116

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Avon could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and take a cardigan just in case you get chilly. Pick roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Avon in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on 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 in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
