Do you have any tips for my flight to Xichang?
If you're not prepared, travelling can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Xichang. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • A plane ride can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Xichang?
It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Xichang, here you come:
  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
