Flights to Elatochori, Katerini from NT$36,009

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Elatochori could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Elatochori in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
