Do you have any tips for my flight to Playa?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Playa in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Playa?
The answer is simple — be organised. We've put together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Playa, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
