The five-day trip has drawn opposition from supporters of the Palestinians.
Barring the outbreak of war with Iran, Israeli President Isaac Herzog is slated to visit Australia next week.
The five-day trip has drawn opposition from pro-Palestinian groups, with protests planned in major cities.
Herzog is expected to meet survivors and families of the victims of the Dec. 14 shooting at Bondi Beach near Sydney, in which terrorists killed 15 people and wounded 39 others.
He was first invited to visit by the leaders of the Australian Jewish community.
In the six weeks since the attack, antisemitic incidents have continued unabated in the country.
An Australian teenager was charged on Friday with issuing death threats against Herzog online.
The Israeli president will be flying commercial to Australia on a foreign carrier.
Israeli airlines do not currently offer service to Australia; the fastest flights from Tel Aviv travel via the United Arab Emirates, while Thailand is another connection option.
