How to survive the flight to Lord Howe Island?
If you’re poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a trouble-free start to your time in Lord Howe Island.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you’ll step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and don’t forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lord Howe Island?
The trick is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Lord Howe Island in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
