Flights to Sellack, Ross-on-Wye from NT$6,188

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of handy hints that will help get your Sellack vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Sellack a piece of cake. We've compiled some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with a new cologne? Not a problem. 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 OK to bring with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• 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 suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
