Flights to Post Creek, St. Ignatius from NT$17,707

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Post Creek escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your trip to Post Creek easy and painless. Here are some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
