Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Yarramalong could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• 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 and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Yarramalong, here you come:

• Keep your passport and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
