Cheap Flights to Toogoolawah from HK$545

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Toogoolawah escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and bring a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks is also recommended.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Toogoolawah, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in 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.
