Do you have any tips for my flight to Lake Macquarie?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a stress-free start to your holiday in Lake Macquarie. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's easy — first, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lake Macquarie?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Lake Macquarie quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
