Do you have any tips for my flight to Queensland Islands?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Queensland Islands escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Queensland Islands?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Queensland Islands a piece of cake. Check out our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
