If you’re not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your vacation in Taizhou.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good read. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Taizhou a breeze. Here are some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass at hand. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be 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 several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
