Cheap Flights to Pisco

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a blast in Pisco in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organised before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Pisco quick and painless. Read through our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all 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 be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
