Flights to Lakewood, Illinois from NT$15,186

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Lakewood could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Lakewood a pleasure. Below you'll find some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
