Flights to Mira, Venice from NT$25,836

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Mira in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Mira in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Have your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
