How to survive the flight to Benfica?
If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Benfica.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your number one priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Benfica?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Benfica a breeze. Below you'll find some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
