Flights to Big Prairie, Ohio from NT$27,529

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of handy hints that will help get your Big Prairie vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. 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 appreciate it.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Big Prairie, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• 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 luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
