Do you have any tips for my flight to Medellin?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Medellin could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Medellin?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Medellin, here you come:
  • Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
