How to survive the flight to San Gil?

Accepted Answer

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a blast in San Gil in no time flat.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First, put in your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort really should be the goal when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a sensible way to go.
Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to mitigate your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

Question 10

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San Gil?

Accepted Answer

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to San Gil in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
Your electronic devices 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 in no time.
Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, 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.
Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
