Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Guyuan could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
- Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help minimize this risk.
