Flights to Taino, Lombardy from NT$3,519

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and seeing the best of Taino in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your prime concern when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Taino a pleasure. Here are some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item 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 great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
