Flights to Hooton, Ellesmere Port from NT$21,503

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Hooton could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Hooton easy and painless. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
