How to survive the flight to Puerto Maldonado?
If you’re not prepared, travelling can be testing. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your getaway in Puerto Maldonado.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be easy if you’ve got all the right things. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Puerto Maldonado?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve rounded up some useful tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Puerto Maldonado, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Don’t forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
