Flights to Vevey, Canton of Vaud from NT$7,231

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Vevey could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Vevey, here you come:

• Keep your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
