Flights to Von Ormy, San Antonio from NT$9,389

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Von Ormy vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you take the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Von Ormy a pleasure. Here are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Keep your passport and travel documents within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
