Flights to Villayon, Asturias from NT$9,447

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Villayon vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

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 gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Villayon easy and painless. Read through our useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container 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.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
