Flights to Luquet, Occitanie from NT$78,333

If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a pleasant start to your vacation in Luquet. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

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 or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Luquet, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
