How to survive the flight to Cancun?

Accepted Answer

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Cancun vacation started on the right note.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

The aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks can also help.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cancun?

Accepted Answer

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Cancun a pleasure. Below are some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
