How to survive the flight to Altata?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be zooming through airport security and exploring Altata before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and bring a cardigan in case it gets cool. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks can also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Altata?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Altata a pleasure. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
