Cheap Flights to Lake Alfred

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Lake Alfred in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

It's all about being organised. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Lake Alfred, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
