How to survive the flight to Esmeraldas?
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 Esmeraldas in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and don’t forget to pack a sweater just in case you get cold. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Esmeraldas?
Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Esmeraldas a pleasure. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Can’t travel without your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
