Flights to Pacho, Bogotá from NT$19,316

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Pacho escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Pacho a pleasure. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, 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), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
