Flights to Patau-Patau Water Village, Labuan from NT$5,456

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Patau-Patau Water Village could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be the goal when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights is also a wise idea.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Patau-Patau Water Village a breeze. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
