Flights to Bagn, Sor-Aurdal from NT$19,409

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Bagn could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you've got all the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and go for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Bagn a breeze. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
