Flights to Sobrefoz, Ponga from NT$3,915

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Sobrefoz escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Sobrefoz easy and painless. Check out our top tips for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
