I will be returning from NAN to MEL via SYD. If I buy duty free (alcohol) on arrival at SYD. Can I carry it onboard through to MEL, or do I pass through security again at the domestic. I will be travelling with carry-on only. Thanks for any advice you might give.
 
I've never had an issue with duty free coming through SYD when returning to BNE - so I would think that you should be OK.
 
From the Australian Govt. TravelSECURE FAQ site;

Do the liquids, aerosols and gels restrictions apply to domestic air services?
No. The liquids, aerosols and gels restrictions only apply to international flights.

As long as SYD-MEL leaves from the domestic terminal, you should be fine. If your flight number is above QF400 then you're all OK. :)

Where does your SYD-MEL flight depart from?
  • If T1 (Int) then the answer is no.
  • Otherwise (T2/T3, Dom.) the answer is yes.
 
Thanks for the quick responses. SYD-MEL is from T3 with QF so my purchases should be safe. I will be able to refresh my Tanqueray 10 supplies.:):)
