We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and discovering San José before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also prohibited.
- Your priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The trick is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to San José in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

- Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
- The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
