How to survive the flight to Ixtapa?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be breezing through airport security and discovering Ixtapa before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, 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:

  • The goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural-fibre clothing and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your luggage.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ixtapa?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Ixtapa easy and painless. We’ve rounded up some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
