How to survive the flight to Chinatown?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Chinatown could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Chinatown?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Chinatown in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID at hand. They’re the first things you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
