Do you have any tips for my flight to Gladstone?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a pleasant start to your getaway in Gladstone. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gladstone?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Gladstone easy and painless. Check out our useful tips for a swift journey past security:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
