Do you have any tips for my flight to La Merced?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your La Merced holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to La Merced?
Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to La Merced easy and painless. Check out our handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

  • Keep your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), 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 shoes is always a good idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
