Accepted Answer

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Punta Alta in next to no time.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good choice too.
A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Punta Alta?

Accepted Answer

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Punta Alta a piece of cake. Below you'll find some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
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. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
