Flights to Pfafftown, North Carolina from NT$18,468

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Pfafftown could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up, and wear flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Pfafftown a pleasure. Below you'll find some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
