Flights to Perinad, Kollam from NT$45,207

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Perinad could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple --- first, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and take a cardigan in case it gets cool. Always opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple --- be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Perinad, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
