Flights to Johnson, Vermont from NT$33,902

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Johnson. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Johnson in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Have your passport and travel documents within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
