Do you have any tips for my flight to Golmud?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and enjoying Golmud in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Golmud?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Golmud in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
