Do you have any tips for my flight to East China?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to East China could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to East China?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to East China quick and painless. Below are some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
