How to survive the flight to Salinas?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be speeding through airport security and exploring Salinas in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don’t forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your main priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
  • Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Salinas?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your trip to Salinas quick and painless. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
