Flights to Fitzroy Harbour, Ottawa from NT$21,036

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Fitzroy Harbour could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The trick is to be well organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Fitzroy Harbour in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
