Flights to Holly Springs, North Carolina from NT$9,802

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and discovering Holly Springs in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Holly Springs in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
