Flights to Rooiberg, Bela-Bela from NT$8,586

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Rooiberg could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and pack a cardigan in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Look out Rooiberg, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often 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 inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
