Flights to Moon Island, La Paz from NT$22,670

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Moon Island could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural fibers and take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Moon Island, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
