Do you have any tips for my flight to Mexicali?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Mexicali escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and wear closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mexicali?
The answer is — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Mexicali, here you come:

  • First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
