Do you have any tips for my flight to Wollongong?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your time in Wollongong. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wollongong?
The trick is to be organised before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Wollongong in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
