Flights to Nanuet, New York from NT$3,705

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Nanuet vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Nanuet in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
