Do you have any tips for my flight to Machalilla?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a hassle-free start to your vacation in Machalilla. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Machalilla?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Machalilla in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

  • Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of 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 in the cabin.
