How to survive the flight to El Medano?

Accepted Answer

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your holiday in El Medano.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

A plane trip can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and pack a pullover in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to El Medano?

Accepted Answer

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to El Medano quick and painless. Read through our handy tips for a swift journey past security:

First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
Your electronic gadgets 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 before you know it.
Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, 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), clear zip-close bag.
The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
