Flights to Lead Vale, Christ Church from NT$46,041

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Lead Vale could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The trick is to be organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Lead Vale before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
