How to survive the flight to Arenal?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Arenal could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
  • Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Arenal?
The trick is to be organised before you reach security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Arenal in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They’re the first items you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you on board.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
