Maximize your space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest clothing, and planning your outfits wisely. This approach also helps you avoid the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may not provide in-flight entertainment. Download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts in advance, and consider bringing a book to keep yourself entertained. Remember to fully charge your devices before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, it's advisable to get to the airport at least 1.5 to 2 hours prior to departure, taking into account traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack some snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at least 3 hours before departure for international flights to account for check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, take the opportunity to browse the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.

How to survive the flight to Patio?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Patio could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and pack a cardigan in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Patio?
Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Patio quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
