The Best Time to Visit for Travelling on Flights to Emerald
The hottest time of the year in Emerald is January when temperatures can reach up to 45°C during the day. These temperatures are perhaps not unexpected as January falls into the middle of the Australian summer. Of course, holiday-makers that love the hot weather will love booking their plane tickets to Emerald for this time. Just don’t forget to pack your SPF. If you’re flying from a cooler departure point, it can be wise to wear your hot weather-appropriate garb on the plan (think loose and light fabrics, with a hat and sunglasses in your backpack or bag) so you’re ready as soon as you land at Emerald Airport (EMD). If you’d prefer cooler temperatures for your holiday, look for cheap flights to Emerald during the autumn months (March to May). This is the less popular time to visit the town, so the upside of the brisker weather is that there may be fewer other tourists around. There is much you can do in the cooler climate, thanks to temperatures sitting between 11°C and 22°C during the day - ideal conditions for getting outdoors and exploring. Book flights to Emerald around this time and also potentially pair your airfare to Emerald with cheap hotel deals and accommodation.

A Brief History Before Boarding Flights to Emerald
Emerald has quite an interesting name. This Queensland town got its moniker from some of its earliest European settlers, who came across a vibrant green hill upon their travels across Queensland. The hill was beset by a flowing river and a massive natural lake. The beautiful location was simply too much to walk away from and they decided to settle. The city, Emerald, gets its name from that beautiful green hill they saw on their way in. If you’ve booked your tickets to Emerald at the right time of year, you might just catch a glimpse of that emerald green hill as you fly in to land at Emerald Airport (EMD).
