Flights to Spineni, Olt County from NT$5,932

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Spineni. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The trick is to be organized before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Spineni in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
