How to survive the flight to Daintree?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Daintree could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We’ve rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you’ve got all the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your prime concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Daintree?
As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Daintree in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
