Flights to Dellach, Carinthia from NT$27,841

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these handy hints that will get your Dellach vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and pick easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Dellach a piece of cake. Below you'll find some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
