How to survive the flight to China?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and discovering China before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

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 prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a smart option.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, 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 reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to China?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out China, here you come:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, 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.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
