Do you have any tips for my flight to Nuevo Leon?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of handy tips that will get your Nuevo Leon escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and pick easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nuevo Leon?
Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Nuevo Leon a piece of cake. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
