Cheap Flights to Monterrico

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Monterrico could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Monterrico, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
