How to survive the flight to Port Douglas?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve prepared well enough. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Port Douglas escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Port Douglas?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Port Douglas in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
