Do you have any tips for my flight to Pu'er?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Pu'er could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be easy if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pu'er?
The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Pu'er, here you come:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
