Flights to Pujili, Cotopaxi from NT$61,825

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Pujili vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Pujili in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
