If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Changli County.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a wise idea.
• A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Changli County in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
