How to survive the flight to Papagayo?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve prepared well. Follow these handy hints that will get your Papagayo escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you’ll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
  • The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Papagayo?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Papagayo in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Be sure to have your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They’re the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart 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.
