We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and enjoying Haibei Tibetan in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to pack a cardigan in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Haibei Tibetan quick and painless. Read through our useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
