How to survive the flight to Tijuana?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be breezing through airport security and discovering Tijuana in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you’ll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tijuana?
Being prepared before your flight will help make your getaway to Tijuana a pleasure. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don’t hold up the line.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers 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 shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
