How to survive the flight to Playa Hermosa?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and seeing the best of Playa Hermosa in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Playa Hermosa?
It’s simple — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Playa Hermosa, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be 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 possibility that you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
