If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a stress-free start to your getaway in Paraiso. What to pack in your hand luggage: - A plane ride can be easy if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards. Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage: - Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also prohibited. What to wear on a flight: - Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and pick closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons. - Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights. ### How to get through airport security fast when flying to Paraiso? Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Paraiso easy and painless. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security: - Have your boarding pass and ID at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security. - Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn. - Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough. - Travelling with your favourite hand cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board. - Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening. - Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage. ## Travel information | Destination city name | San José | | ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Destination airport | Juan Santamaria Intl.
