How to survive the flight to Ribeira Grande?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We’ve compiled a list of handy tips that will help get your Ribeira Grande escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ribeira Grande?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve compiled some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Ribeira Grande, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of 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.
