We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and exploring Tau in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some great options.

Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and pack a pullover just in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

Being organized before your flight will help make your trip to Tau a piece of cake. Read through our top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
