We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in Zhongzheng before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks can also help.

The trick is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Zhongzheng in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Have your boarding pass and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
