Flights to Kiowa, Kansas from NT$30,835

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Kiowa escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Kiowa a breeze. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger 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 baggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
