Flights to Junne, Ommen from NT$19,458

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of handy hints that will help get your Junne vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Junne a pleasure. Here are some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Have your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
