Mackay Flights

Escape the winter in Australia's southern states by grabbing a seat aboard any of the flights to Mackay, Queensland. Located right on the northern coast between Brisbane and Cairns, Mackay enjoys mild temperatures throughout the entire year. An eclectic array of shops and restaurants populate this city full of palm trees, and the art deco architecture here is unlike anywhere else in Oz. And with dozens of beaches and oodles of outdoor activities, there's never a bad time to travel to this idyllic city.

Best Time to Travel to Mackay

Peak Season:

In the weeks around Easter and from December through mid-January are when most tourists tend to visit Mackay. September is another popular time to visit this region, as temperatures rise to around 25 degrees Celsius and rainfall isn't as frequent as it is during other months of the year.

Shoulder Season:

The shoulder season in Mackay stretches from the middle of January until a few weeks before Easter. It's this time that many visitors consider to be most favourable for venturing here, as it's easier to enjoy attractions and events during these months. Since there are less crowds around this time, you'll have better odds of scoring sweet deals on travel packages.

Off Season:

Tourism generally slows down in this region after the Easter holiday, which typically falls in March or April, and doesn't pick up again until after winter ends. During this time, the city's proximity to the Great Barrier Reef makes for great whale watching, especially amid the annual migration period from July through November. If you’re interested in finding cheap flights to Mackay, this season is likely your best bet.

Mackay Airport and Transfer Information

Upon deplaning, you’ll have a few different options concerning how to get around town. Rent a vehicle with us in advance as many of Australia's most well-known car hire agencies have a presence on the airport’s premises, but a fleet of Mackay Whitsunday Taxis are always available just outside the terminal, too. Greyhound bus lines also make stops here, in case you’re interested in transferring somewhere outside of town.

How to survive the flight to Mackay?

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through the airport and discovering Mackay in no time flat.\n\nWhat to pack in your hand luggage:\n\n* The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.\n\nDo not pack the following items in your hand luggage:\n\n* Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).\n\nWhat to wear on a flight:\n\n* The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fibre clothing and bring a jacket in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.\n* Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.\n

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mackay?

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Mackay in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:\n\n* Keep your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.\n* Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, 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 before your turn.\n* Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.\n* Remove all gels and liquids from your hand 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 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.\n* There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.\n* Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.\n
