If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a pleasant start to your vacation in Raoyang County. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Raoyang County easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• Keep your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
