Flights to Saint Sebastien, Quebec from NT$7,795

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Saint Sebastien could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Saint Sebastien a breeze. Here are some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
