Flights to Rawang, Selangor from NT$844

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will help get your Rawang vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to minimize your risk. Wear compression socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Rawang in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
