Do you have any tips for my flight to Sunshine Coast?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and discovering Sunshine Coast in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sunshine Coast?
It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some top tips for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Sunshine Coast, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
