Do you have any tips for my flight to Santa Elena?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Santa Elena. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat footwear like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Santa Elena?
It's all about being organized. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Santa Elena, here you come:

  • Keep your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
