We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and seeing the best of Quibdó in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don’t have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Quibdó a piece of cake. We’ve compiled some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Keep your ID and boarding pass at hand. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, 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.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• 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 luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
