Cheap Flights to Limón from CA $194

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Limón could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Limón in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good 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.
