Flights to Boranup, Western Australia from NT$5,734

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Boranup could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

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 box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and opt for flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Boranup quick and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
