Do you have any tips for my flight to Ciudad Cortés?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Ciudad Cortés in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ciudad Cortés?
The secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ciudad Cortés in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Have your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favourite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
