Flights to Lemitar, New Mexico from NT$23,764

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Lemitar escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Lemitar in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
