Flights to Jay Em, Wyoming from NT$59,932

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a pleasant start to your getaway in Jay Em. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your trip to Jay Em a pleasure. Read through our handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
