Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your North Bruny vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

The trick is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to North Bruny in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
