Do you have any tips for my flight to El Ejido?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in El Ejido. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to El Ejido?
The secret is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to El Ejido in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:
  • First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
