How to survive the flight to Columbia?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Columbia could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set 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 liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are your best bet.
  • Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbia?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Columbia, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport at hand. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with a new cologne? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
