Flights to Grand Ledge, Michigan from NT$10,341

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Grand Ledge escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good choice too.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Grand Ledge, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
