Flights to Bhaderwah, Doda from NT$5,966

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a pleasant start to your vacation in Bhaderwah. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's all about being organized. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Bhaderwah, here you come:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove 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.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
