Flights to Roncegno, Trentino-Alto Adige from NT$3,905

If you're not prepared, traveling can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a pleasant start to your vacation in Roncegno.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Roncegno in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
