Before your flight from Mackay Airport
- Check your flight's status before you set off and again on the way. Your airline's app or text alerts are the most direct source for gate and boarding changes.
- Check-in and bag-drop deadlines are set by each airline. Look them up on your booking rather than relying on a general rule.
- Returning a rental car? Allow extra time for the return inspection, refuel to the level your rental terms require, and keep the return receipt.
