Flights to Binghamton, New York from NT$32,397

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Binghamton could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Binghamton a breeze. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
