tbc. fco inc. advice, weather

• take at least two cards (credit and debit). Make sure you have the pin number for both. You may want to load your credit card so that you don't get charged extra money. Check the overseas rates.

• You'll need travel Insurance - get some. The sooner you get it the sooner you're covered.
• On the flights make sure you have no sharp objects in your bags, even nail sissors or razor blades.
• Anyone staying in Australia will nee dto ensure they have an electronic holiday visa before they depart (I think these are all sorted)
• Reconfirm flights before departure
