If you’re poorly prepared, traveling can be challenging. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your time in Shanghai.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It’s also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a smart option.
• It’s likely you’ve heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Shanghai in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don’t hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s fine to bring with you on board.
• It’s also likely that you’ll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
