How to survive the flight to Santa Cruz?
If you’re poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your holiday in Santa Cruz.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you’ll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your prime concern when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Santa Cruz?
Being organised before you get to the airport can make your trip to Santa Cruz a piece of cake. Below you’ll find some useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
