If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a comfortable start to your time in Julio de Castilhos. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Julio de Castilhos?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Julio de Castilhos a piece of cake. Below you'll find some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
