How to survive the flight to Sydney?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a trouble-free start to your time in Sydney.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a pocket knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are your best bet.
  • The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sydney?
A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Sydney a piece of cake. We’ve compiled some handy hints for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your passport and travel documents handy. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
