Flights to Farhult, Hoganas from NT$41,180

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these handy hints that will get your Farhult escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Farhult easy and painless. Here are some top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
