Flights to Williams, Minnesota from NT$84,863

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Williams could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Pick flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Williams, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
