Do you have any tips for my flight to Canberra?

  • Wherever you’re heading, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’re prepared. Firstly, pack your passport (or a valid ID), travel documents and medications. Next, toss in some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. The latest bestseller and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are a couple of good options. If you want to get some shut-eye, a comfy neck pillow and noise-canceling headphones are also worth squeezing in.
  • Don’t forget there’s also a list of prohibited items for your hand luggage which can differ between airlines and routes. As a general rule, avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like razor blades, box cutters, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as batons and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Opt for comfort rather than fashion when flying. Layer up and wear natural fabrics as they allow air and moisture to pass through and keep you cool. Cabins can get colder on longer journeys, so pack a sweater and always wear sneakers or flat, closed-toe shoes.
  • Lessen your risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition which can be caused by sitting for lengthy periods, by regularly walking around the cabin. You can also do some gentle lower limb exercises in your seat. If you’re at higher risk of developing DVT, think about wearing compression socks or tights.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Canberra?
The key to picking up a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to Canberra is being flexible. You can land a fantastic deal if you’re not tied to particular travel dates, flight times and carriers. Also compare the prices of flying into and out of nearby airports if that’s an option for you.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to Canberra?
Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
