Question 9

How to survive the flight to Rivas?

Accepted Answer

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will get your Rivas escape started on the right foot.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good choice too.
You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Question 10

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

Accepted Answer

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Rivas, here you come:

First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
