How to survive the flight to El Dorado?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’re prepared. We’ve compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your El Dorado holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking 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 luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and pack a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
  • You’ve probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to El Dorado?
The secret is to be prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to El Dorado in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with a new perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
