Flights to Non Rang, Khueang Nai from NT$3,284

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Non Rang escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Non Rang quick and painless. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
