Do you have any tips for my flight to Palena?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips that will help get your Palena holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Palena?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Palena easy and painless. Check out our handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
