Do you have any tips for my flight to El Calafate?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and enjoying El Calafate in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to El Calafate?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Look out El Calafate, here you come:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
