Flights to Gishubi, Southern Province from NT$43,435

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Gishubi could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged 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 improve your circulation.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Gishubi easy and painless. Here are some handy hints for a stress-free journey through security:

• Keep your travel documents and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
