Flights to Rajapalayam, Tamil Nadu from NT$6,560

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Rajapalayam.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is --- be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Rajapalayam, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
