Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Broadhempston could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Broadhempston in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
