Flights to Uckfield, England from NT$3,476

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Uckfield escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

The trick is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Uckfield in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
