Flights to Olga, Washington from NT$18,963

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Olga could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Olga easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring 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.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
