Tips for short-haul flights to Nanchang

Maximize space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest clothing, and planning your outfits carefully. This strategy also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may lack in-flight entertainment options. To stay engaged, download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and consider bringing a book. Be sure to charge your devices fully before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, it's advisable to arrive at least 1.5 to 2 hours before your departure, taking into account potential traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack snacks and carry a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

Some airlines may permit seat selection even earlier.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—ensure you arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before your departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have extra time, consider exploring the shops, visiting a coffee shop, or unwinding at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is usually available for free.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin syncing your body clock by changing your watch and sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone. Try to either sleep or stay awake during the flight according to the local time of your arrival to help minimize jet lag.
