Do you have any tips for my flight to Xi'an?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Xi'an in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and wear easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Xi'an?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Xi'an a pleasure. We've rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:
  • Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
