Flights to Bernal, Buenos Aires from NT$27,212

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Bernal.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

The trick is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Bernal in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually 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 single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
