Flights to Canal Winchester, Columbus from NT$14,273

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Canal Winchester vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and pack a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

The trick is to be organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Canal Winchester in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
