How to survive the flight to San Mateo?
If you’re not prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your getaway in San Mateo.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San Mateo?
The answer is — be prepared. We’ve put together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out San Mateo, here you come:

  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
