Before You Leave

Any changes to your flights or late arrivals must be confirmed and acknowledged by email or by telephone.

You should travel with your pre-departure information and if there are any changes or flights are missed, you must call immediately with the new flight details.

Please note that any food brought into Australia must be declared.

Customs and Immigration are thorough in searching for food which may bring disease into Australia, and failure to declare will incur a fine and seizure of goods.

Please DO NOT leave the airport. If a staff member cannot be found, a public phone is located by the baggage carousel on the ground level to telephone the contact number you have been given.
