How to survive the flight to Santa Cruz?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Santa Cruz could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also recommended.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Santa Cruz?
Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Santa Cruz a piece of cake. We’ve compiled some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

  • Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
