Flights to Bobia de Arriba, Onis from NT$9,028

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will get your Bobia de Arriba escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing 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 hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cool. Always go with flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Bobia de Arriba a breeze. Check out our top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
