How to survive the flight to San Mateo?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’re well organised. Check out these handy hints that will help get your San Mateo escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a pleasure if you’ve got all the right gear. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put 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 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your prime concern when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are your best bet.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San Mateo?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to San Mateo quick and painless. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
