Flights to Jasper East, Alberta from NT$2,273

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Jasper East could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Jasper East in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
