How to survive the flight to Melbourne?
If you’re poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Melbourne.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Melbourne?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Melbourne, here you come:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the line.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
