Do you have any tips for my flight to Cusco?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and enjoying Cusco before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space 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:
  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cusco?
The trick is to be organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Cusco in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:
  • Have your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Your jacket, belt, 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 before your turn arrives.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in 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.
