Easter travellers set to pack airports

Tonight. Travel alert this morning with hundreds of thousands today jetting off for the Easter long weekend. Let’s go live to Jack Hannah at Sydney Airport where the rush is on. Jack, good morning. It’s gonna be a big day. Yeah, it’ll be the busiest day today of the long weekend. We’re expecting more than 100,000 people through Sydney Airport today in the next 24 hours, 50,000 through Brizzy. The advice is if you are taken to the skies, well, just double check with your airline. But we know the advice. We’ll try and check in online and maybe even pack a carry-on, only you’ll thank yourself later. Now we’re already starting to see a little bit of traffic getting to Sydney Airport this morning on Oredon St. as well as Southern Cross Drive. And of course, plenty of people will be taking to the roads to get away. For this Easter a few pinch points to keep in mind here in Sydney include the Pacific Highway through Rwanda and then further up north through Newcastle. A bit of misery expected on the Great Western Hwy. through Blackheath as well as down in now are on the Princess Highway. If you are leaving Melbourne, the Monash Freeway as well as the Westgate Bridge are the pinch points, there in Breezy, the Bruce Hwy. and the M1 southbound Adelaide, the Sturt Highway and in Perth the Kwinana Freeway and some advice for our Sydney side of friends waking up this morning. Double demerits and out in place and Highway Patrol promise. To be out in force. Sarah. Good reminder, Jack. Thank you.
