How to survive the flight to Cartago?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. We’ve compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Cartago holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Go for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
  • The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cartago?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Cartago easy and painless. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
