Flights to Novxanı, Baku from NT$11,749

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a trouble-free start to your vacation in Novxanı. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Novxanı a pleasure. Check out our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
