Flights to Garden Valley, Idaho from NT$5,791

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Garden Valley escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Garden Valley a breeze. We've compiled some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
