Flights to Camporeale, Sicily from NT$9,604

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Camporeale escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Camporeale, here you come:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
