Cheap Flights to Eden

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a blast in Eden in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Eden easy and painless. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
