Do you have any tips for my flight to Shigatse?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Shigatse before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shigatse?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Shigatse a breeze. Check out our top tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
