Flights to Siggiewi, Southern Region from NT$5,822

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Siggiewi escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you've got all the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, 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 always be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Siggiewi a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product 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.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
