Do you have any tips for my flight to San Juan Capistrano?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to San Juan Capistrano could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San Juan Capistrano?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to San Juan Capistrano a piece of cake. We've compiled some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
