• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right gear. First things first, you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks can also help.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Ubatuba quick and painless. Check out our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your boarding pass and passport easily accessible. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
