We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Taixing Shi in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be well organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Taixing Shi in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget 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 in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
