Do you have any tips for my flight to La Palma?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your holiday in La Palma. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

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 carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to La Palma?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to La Palma a pleasure. Check out our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • 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 in the cabin.
