Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Abingdon could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Abingdon a breeze. Read through our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
