Flights to Zuljana, Ston from NT$8,512

If you're not prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a pain-free start to your time in Zuljana. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Zuljana in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
