How to survive the flight to San Jose?
If you’re poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a pain-free start to your vacation in San Jose.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San Jose?
It’s all about being organized. We’ve put together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out San Jose, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport someplace easily accessible. They’re the first items you’ll be asked for by security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
