Flights to Boboras, Galicia from NT$2,232

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Boboras escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be organized before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Boboras in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, 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.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
