Frequently Asked Questions for Readers

1. How can I find a cheap flight ticket?

2 Principles of Cheap Flight Tickets
Principle one, ahead of time, ahead of time
Principle 2: Make good use of comparison sites
I myself use Skyscanner the most. I can compare different airlines and different zones at once, and set price alerts, which is very considerate.
Usually price comparison websites provide price reminders . When you set your expected departure date, departure and destination, he will send you a message every day to tell you that the price is fluctuating, so that you can buy air tickets within your budget.
Detailed article: How to buy air tickets in the United States? 3 steps to buy cheap air tickets

2. What’s the weather like in Australia?

Australia is located in the southern hemisphere,

Summer: December to February
Autumn: March to May
Winter: June-August
Spring: September-November

In spring, summer and autumn, the three seasons fall between 15 and 25 degrees, and in winter between 8 and 17 degrees, Brisbane will be warmer, and southern Sydney and Melbourne will be slightly cooler!

3. Australia voltage/socket?

The local voltage in Australia is 220-240V, the frequency is 50Hz, and most of them are eight-shaped plugs! Therefore, you must prepare the adapter before traveling to Australia!
You can buy a universal adapter like this in advance!

4. How do I get a tax refund for Australian travel?

A single retail store spends more than AUD 300 within 60 days of leaving Australia (one statement)
The following 3 ways to refund tax

Credit card: 5 working days
Australian bank account: 5 working days
Check: 15 working days

If you want a tax refund, remember to obtain a tax-included invoice when you buy something. Before buying something, remember to remind you when you check out that you need a tax refund, and they will know what to do!

4 things you need to prepare for tax refund
Items purchased
Tax-included invoices containing more than AUD 300
passport
Air tickets

If you want to refund the tax, you should arrive at the airport 4 hours in advance, because you have to do it 30 minutes before boarding, and the tax refund acceptance will stop 30 minutes before boarding (to prevent you from missing the plane)!
