Flights to Petersfield, England from NT$19,067

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Petersfield could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Petersfield before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite 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-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
