How to survive the flight to Lijiang?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Lijiang could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We’ve compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you’ve got all the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your highest priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lijiang?
The secret is to be organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Lijiang before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
  • Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Knives and other sharp items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
