Flights to Hantsport, Nova Scotia from NT$34,685

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a stress-free start to your time in Hantsport. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put 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 by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Hantsport easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? 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, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
