Flights to South Petherton, England from NT$30,420

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your South Petherton vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

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 banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea too.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to South Petherton in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
