Flights to East Hanover, New Jersey from NT$7,472

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and discovering East Hanover in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and wear flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to East Hanover a piece of cake. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
