Flights to Trollasen, Oslo from NT$3,929

If you're not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a worry-free start to your time in Trollasen.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and bring a jacket just in case you get chilly. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your trip to Trollasen easy and painless. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
