Flights to Dimbulah, Queensland from NT$5,310

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a stress-free start to your vacation in Dimbulah. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel 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:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've rounded up some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Dimbulah, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
