How to survive the flight to El Chiru?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to El Chiru could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. 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.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to El Chiru?
The answer is — be prepared. We’ve put together some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out El Chiru, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock 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. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
