How to survive the flight to Xichang?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Xichang.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you’ll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and bring a cardigan in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Xichang?
Being organised before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Xichang a piece of cake. Below are some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them handy so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
