Flights to Leikanger, Sogndal from NT$44,994

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Leikanger could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Leikanger a breeze. Check out our handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with a new cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
