Flights to Fort Smith, Arkansas from NT$63,020

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in Fort Smith before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pack a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organized. We've rounded up some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Fort Smith, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
