Cheap Flights to Fortaleza dos Valos

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy hints that will help get your Fortaleza dos Valos holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Fortaleza dos Valos, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
