Flights to Tuschen, Essequibo Islands-West Demerara from NT$25,691

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a comfortable start to your time in Tuschen.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your main priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Tuschen quick and painless. Below are some top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product 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.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
