Do you have any tips for my flight to Fortaleza?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Fortaleza. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Fortaleza?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Fortaleza a piece of cake. Below are some handy hints for a swift journey past security:
  • Keep your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
