Flights to Sutrio, Friuli Venezia Giulia from NT$3,499

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Sutrio could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Sutrio a breeze. Here are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
