Flights to Infiesto, Pilona from NT$5,522

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your vacation in Infiesto. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, 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 sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Infiesto, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
