Cheap Flights to Aracruz from CA $66

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Aracruz escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Aracruz a piece of cake. Read through our handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
