Flights to Stevensville, Fort Erie from NT$5,921

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. Follow these handy travel tips that will help get your Stevensville vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Stevensville quick and painless. Here are some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
