Do you have any tips for my flight to Punta Mala?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these handy tips that will help get your Punta Mala vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Punta Mala?
A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Punta Mala quick and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
