Flights to Barry, Illinois from NT$21,574

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and enjoying Barry in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Barry, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
