Flights to Mirwart, Saint-Hubert from NT$4,657

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Mirwart could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy 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 pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Mirwart, here you come:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
