Do you have any tips for my flight to Portuguese Island?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Portuguese Island in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk 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 Portuguese Island?
The answer is simple — be organised. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Portuguese Island, here you come:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
