How to survive the flight to Townsville?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Townsville could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve put together some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don’t forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Townsville?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Townsville a breeze. We’ve compiled some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
