Flights to Combe, Hungerford from NT$26,319

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Combe could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Combe before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Keep your travel documents and passport at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. 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 your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
