  • Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Elephant Butte?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Elephant Butte, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
