How to survive the flight to Platanes?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Platanes could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are always good 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 few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and bring a pullover in case you get cold. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your luggage.
  • A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Platanes?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Platanes in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
