Flights to Kudawella, Southern Province from NT$6,396

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Kudawella vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kudawella in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
