How to survive the flight to Sao Nicolau?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Sao Nicolau could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We’ve pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • You’ve probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sao Nicolau?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Sao Nicolau quick and painless. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with a new hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • It’s also possible you’ll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
