How to survive the flight to Cartagena?
If you’re not prepared, air travel can be testing. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a pleasant start to your getaway in Cartagena.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don’t forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cartagena?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Cartagena in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
