Do you have any tips for my flight to Ponta Delgada?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a ball in Ponta Delgada in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ponta Delgada?
The trick is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Ponta Delgada in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
