How to survive the flight to Mackay?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be zooming through the airport and enjoying Mackay in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mackay?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Mackay easy and painless. We’ve rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
