How to survive the flight to La Plata?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’ve prepared well. We’ve put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your La Plata escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don’t forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good idea.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to La Plata?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to La Plata easy and painless. Check out our useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Can’t travel without your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
