Flights to Jerez, Jutiapa Department from NT$12,382

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Jerez vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Jerez a pleasure. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
