Flights to Higher Bockhampton, Dorchester from NT$8,315

If you're not prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Higher Bockhampton. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Higher Bockhampton quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will 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 need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
