Flights to Caroga Lake, New York from NT$24,976

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy tips that will help get your Caroga Lake vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your prime concern when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Caroga Lake quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
