Flights to Stradbroke, Diss from NT$2,764

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Stradbroke could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and opt for easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Stradbroke easy and painless. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
