How to survive the flight to Santa Elena?
If you’re poorly prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a trouble-free start to your vacation in Santa Elena.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you’ll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Santa Elena?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Santa Elena in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
