Do you have any tips for my flight to Palmira?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and discovering Palmira before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's simple — first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Palmira?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Palmira, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
