Flights to Blairsville, Pennsylvania from NT$5,850

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Blairsville could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Blairsville a pleasure. We've rounded up some useful tips for a swift journey through security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• 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 luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
