Do you have any tips for my flight to Santa Cruz?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will help get your Santa Cruz escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Santa Cruz?
The secret is to be well organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Santa Cruz in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Have your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
  • There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
