Flights to Doctor Coss, Nuevo León from NT$3,124

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Doctor Coss could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The trick is to be organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Doctor Coss in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
