How to survive the flight to El Dorado?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and enjoying El Dorado in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to El Dorado?
It’s all about being organised. We’ve rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out El Dorado, here you come:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t hold up the line.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt 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 tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
