Do you have any tips for my flight to Alfaro Ruiz?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and enjoying Alfaro Ruiz in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alfaro Ruiz?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Alfaro Ruiz, here you come:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Can't travel without your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
