Overhead Zone Transit

Hi. Passed my PPL a few months back and just starting to put in some hours and planning some adventurous XC's. Planning out routes and it's just bizarrely struck me what to do when transiting an airfield overhead. In training I'd always talked to any airfield I passed though this became part of standard procedure for the local area I was used to. I remember my instructor saying you don't have to talk to anyone if you don't want (he wasn't advocating it - merely stating it). How do you handle zone transits in general - do you always make contact?
