Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Near Sawrey could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be well organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Near Sawrey in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
