Flights to Central Tilba, New South Wales from NT$6,805

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Central Tilba could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Next, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Central Tilba before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
