We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be zooming through airport security and discovering Shuilin before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Shuilin quick and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass close by. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
