How to survive the flight to Recife?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Recife could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and take a pullover in case you get cold. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
  • A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Recife?
It’s all about being organised. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Recife, here you come:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
