Virgin Australia has just started offering non-stop flights from Melbourne to one of the world's most popular destinations: sunny Los Angeles!
In honour of easy travel to La La Land, home to some of the world's most famous faces, we thought we'd help you travel in style, too. Check out our tips that will have you jet setting like the world's most elite.
1. Don't worry about parking your car
Once you roll up to the Melbourne airport, you don't want to worry about finding a parking spot – a celebrity would have someone do that for them. When you get to the airport, drop your keys off with us here at Pacific Airport Parking and we'll take on the stress of finding a car park for you. We'll even arrange a courtesy shuttle to get you to your gate in a timely fashion.
2. Bring a small carry on bag
Don't go overboard with your carry on. It's too easy to get flustered trying to save money by packing for your entire trip in one carry-on luggage. Travel without the stress – check your bag and only bring what you need in your carry on.
3. Stay picture-perfect the entire flight
You'll have to swap the sweatpants for something a little more stylish.
Just in case the paparazzi tries to snap a picture, you'll want to remain looking fresh at all times. As you know, this is not easy to do mid-flight – but it can be done. Just think: The runway is your catwalk! Dress in fashionable layers so you can stay comfortable no matter what. This means you'll have to swap the sweatpants for something a little more stylish – however, activewear leggings are still acceptable. Additionally, be sure to keep a handful of towelettes on you and a small makeup kit so you can keep skin clean and glowing from take off to landing.
Of course, if you want to keep a low profile, remember to wear your cap low, or keep your sunglasses on at all times!
4. Sound-proof headphones
Beauty sleep can be hard to come by on longer flights, but as you know, a good night's sleep will do you wonders. To achieve this on the plane, be sure to bring your sound-proof headphones. These are essential to keeping out noises of everything from the chatter of bored passengers to the wails of restless babies. Sound-proof headphones are much more effective than ear plugs, and they give you the bonus of tuning into lovely ambient music.
Now you're ready to travel to LA from Melbourne airport like a celebrity! Don't forget to review parking rates once you book your flights!
