• A plane ride can be a great experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your prime concern when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Yanqing quick and painless. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There’s a possibility that you’ll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
