Flights to Holliday, Missouri from NT$20,335

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Holliday could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

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 bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Holliday a pleasure. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
