Flights to Thapane, Tzaneen from NT$39,047

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Thapane could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

The secret is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Thapane before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
