How to survive the flight to Airlie Beach?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be breezing through the airport and seeing the best of Airlie Beach in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good choice.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and wander the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Airlie Beach?
Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Airlie Beach quick and painless. Read through our handy tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
