Flights to Louisa, Kentucky from NT$15,699

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Louisa could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Louisa before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
