S$351 Cheap Flights to Yeppoon

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a ball in Yeppoon in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and pick slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Yeppoon in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Keep your travel documents and passport easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
