Flights to De Pere, Wisconsin from NT$33,207

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to De Pere could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to De Pere in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
