Do you have any tips for my flight to Altamira?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your time in Altamira. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Altamira?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Altamira a piece of cake. Below you'll find some useful tips for a swift journey past security:
  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
