Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Keelung City Centre could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Keelung City Centre before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also 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-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
