Flights to Lilliesleaf, Melrose from NT$2,086

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Lilliesleaf. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Lilliesleaf easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
