Flights to Shell Lake, Wisconsin from NT$6,860

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Shell Lake could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Shell Lake a pleasure. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must 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. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
