Do you have any tips for my flight to Lao Cai?
If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your holiday in Lao Cai. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for 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:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lao Cai?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Lao Cai in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
