Do you have any tips for my flight to Cartago?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in Cartago in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cartago?
It's all about being prepared. We've put together some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Cartago, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
  • Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner 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.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
