Do you have any tips for my flight to Recife?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Recife. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Recife?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Recife, here you come:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
