Flights to Nabukavesi, Central Division from NT$15,758

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a worry-free start to your vacation in Nabukavesi. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Nabukavesi in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
