Flights to Mastrinka, Trogir from NT$4,820

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Mastrinka could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Mastrinka a pleasure. We've compiled some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
