Flights to Monteroni d'Arbia, Tuscany from NT$5,693

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Monteroni d'Arbia could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.

The trick is to be organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Monteroni d'Arbia in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Keep your travel documents and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually 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 inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
