Flights to Mascot, Tennessee from NT$33,804

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and enjoying Mascot in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Mascot a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
