How to survive the flight to Machalilla?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Machalilla in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and pack a cardigan in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Machalilla?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Machalilla in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, 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), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
