We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and exploring Longyan in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or 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 goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
