Do you have any tips for my flight to Mexico City?
If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your holiday in Mexico City. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mexico City?
It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Mexico City, here you come:
  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Can't travel without your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
  • There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
