Get the latest updates by checking government and airport websites. > - You're required to wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA officer. > - Instead of handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, place it directly on the reader yourself. Then, hold it up for inspection. > - You are now allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. You'll have to remove it for screening. > - Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during the screening process. > - If you're planning to take food on the plane with you, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection. ### Which airlines fly to Eastern Australia? ### How can I find cheap tickets to Eastern Australia? ### How much is a flight to Eastern Australia? ### What are the most popular airports to fly into in Eastern Australia? ### When is the cheapest time to fly to Eastern Australia? ### How much is a plane ticket to Eastern Australia? ### Which airlines with flights to Eastern Australia employ COVID-19 cleanliness policies? > - Qantas - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant. > - Virgin Australia - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant. > - Jetstar - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant. ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - Accommodation - Flights - Packages - Cars - [Cabin Rentals in Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Murray-Darling-Basin-Cabins.d6209305-aaCabins.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) - [Guest Houses in Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Murray-Darling-Basin-Guest-Houses.d6209305-aaGuestHouses.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) - [Adults Only Resorts & in Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Murray-Darling-Basin-Hotels-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d6209305-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Green Hotels in Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Murray-Darling-Basin-Hotels-Green-Sustainable.0-0-d6209305-tGreenSustainable.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Hotels with Indoor Pools in Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Murray-Darling-Basin-Hotels-Hotels-With-Indoor-Pools.0-0-d6209305-tHotelswithIndoorPools.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Mountain Hotels in Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Murray-Darling-Basin-Hotels-Mountain-Hotel.0-0-d6209305-tmountainhotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Murray-Darling Basin Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Murray-Darling-Basin-Hotels.d6209305.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Flights to Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheap-Flights-To-Murray-Darling-Basin.d6209305.Travel-Guide-Flights) - [Flights from Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/6209305/flights-from-murray-darling-basin) - [Visit Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Murray-Darling-Basin.dx6209305) - [Amigo Autos Rental Cars in Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amigo-Autos-Car-Rentals-In-Murray-Darling-Basin.d6209305-c1128.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) - [Thai Cars Rental Cars in Murray-Darling Basin ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Thai-Cars-Car-Rentals-In-Murray-Darling-Basin.d6209305-c1027.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) \* Savings based on package bookings compared to the price of the same components booked separately.
