Flights to Stony Creek, Queensland from NT$4,185

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Stony Creek could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Stony Creek, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
