Flights to Cheraw, Colorado from NT$28,998

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Cheraw could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Cheraw, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Traveling with a new perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
