Flights to Gwehelog, Cardiff from NT$3,825

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Gwehelog vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural fibers and take a sweater in case it gets cool. Pick roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Gwehelog in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. 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.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
