In-Depth Information
Kids under two-years-old receive discounts on many flights across Australia (they are
seatbelted onto a parent's lap and thus don't occupy a seat).
Eating Out
Many cafes, restaurants, surf clubs and pubs offer kids' meals, or will provide small
serves from the main menu. Some also supply high chairs. Many fine-dining restaurants,
however, don't welcome small children. If all else fails, grab some fish-and-chips and
head for the beach. There are also plenty of free or coin-operated barbecues in parks
around the state.
Necessities
Queensland has high-standard medical services and facilities, and items such as baby for-
mula and disposable nappies are widely available.
Major hire-car companies will supply and fit child safety seats, charging a one-off fee
of around $25. Taxi companies aren't legally required to supply child seats, but may be
able to organise one if you call in advance.
