Flights to Calvanico, Campania from NT$7,536

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Calvanico vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Calvanico a pleasure. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
