Flights to Burrum Heads, Queensland from NT$52,210

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through airport security and exploring Burrum Heads in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your prime concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot 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 tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Burrum Heads a pleasure. Here are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
