Do you have any tips for my flight to Nanjing?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Nanjing could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Travelling on a plane can be easy if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nanjing?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Nanjing a breeze. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:
  • Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
