Flights to Westport, Massachusetts from NT$14,805

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and enjoying Westport in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organized before your flight will make your trip to Westport easy and painless. We've rounded up some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
