Flights to Bever, Flemish Region from NT$3,038

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will help get your Bever escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Bever in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort 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 the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
