Flights to Easton, Connecticut from NT$47,470

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Easton could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Easton easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
