Flights to Re, Piedmont from NT$2,494

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your Re vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get chilly. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Re, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
