How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Santa Elena
These clever tips and pointers about airport security procedures will save you lots of time and energy on your trip to Santa Elena:

  • Make sure your passport and boarding pass are easy to access. You will be asked to show them straightaway.
  • Wallets, belts and power banks must be put in a tub for X-raying. If you pass through the body scanner with any one of these items, you’ll be instructed to turn back and remove them.
  • Ensure your phone, laptop and other electronic devices are within reach. These items need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately.
  • When you approach the security checkpoint, you’ll be asked to put all creams, liquids and gels in a separate tub for inspection. Make sure they’re all in containers smaller than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and sealed in a clear zip-lock bag.
  • Loosen your shoelaces in preparation for entering the body scanner. Depending on the type of shoes you’re wearing, security may ask you to take them off.
  • Razors and knives are prohibited from entering the plane. Tuck them away in your checked luggage to avoid leaving them at the security checkpoint.

How to find cheap flights

What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?

Airfares offered on Friday tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity.ca in 2021. Purchasing your airfares on a Thursday or Saturday can also provide better value, however our advice if you’re looking to save money is to avoid booking on a Wednesday or Sunday. Our data shows that those two days have the highest ticket values on average, so keep this in mind if you’re browsing flight deals.

 

What are the cheapest days to fly?

Frequent travellers may already know this, earlier in the week is often the cheapest time to fly. Flights departing on a Monday are the cheapest of the week. Since flights towards the middle of the week tend to be more popular, this causes the prices to rise. This is why, on average, airfares booked on Travelocity.ca in 2021 were most expensive for Wednesday departures.

 

How far in advance can you book a flight?

Here’s the deal: It is typically possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity.ca up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 2-4 weeks prior to their travel dates.

*According to flight demand on Travelocity.ca from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change and may vary depending on selections made.
