How to survive the flight to San Cristobal?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to San Cristobal could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San Cristobal?
The secret is to be organised before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to San Cristobal in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Be sure to have your passport and travel documents handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
