Flights to Bourneville, Ohio from NT$4,420

If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a pleasant start to your vacation in Bourneville.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner 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 treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.

The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Bourneville, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
