Do you have any tips for my flight to San Salvador?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in San Salvador in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San Salvador?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to San Salvador a pleasure. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often 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 in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Take all prohibited items out of 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 and will be confiscated.
