Cheap Flights to Tumbes

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your getaway in Tumbes.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

Being organised before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Tumbes quick and painless. We've compiled some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
