Flights to Ingleside, Illinois from NT$22,339

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy hints that will get your Ingleside escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Ingleside a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Keep your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels 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 inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
