How to survive the flight to Medellin?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and seeing the best of Medellin before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a good read. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don’t forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a cardigan just in case you get cold. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Medellin?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Medellin in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
