Do you have any tips for my flight to Galápagos?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Galápagos holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Galápagos?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Galápagos, here you come:
  • Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Travelling with a new cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container 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.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
