How to survive the flight to San Marcos?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’ve planned ahead. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your San Marcos vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, 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 San Marcos?
It’s all about being organized. We’ve rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out San Marcos, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
