Flights to Plain, Leavenworth from NT$108,037

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Plain could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Plain in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually 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-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
