How to survive the flight to Ahuano?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will get your Ahuano vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a cardigan just in case you get chilly. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ahuano?
The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Ahuano in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
