We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Lushan County in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Lushan County a piece of cake. Below are some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
