Do you have any tips for my flight to Columbia?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Columbia could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbia?
The secret is to be organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Columbia in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, 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 faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
