If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Wollombi. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's all about being organized. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Wollombi, here you come:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
