Do you have any tips for my flight to Shanghai?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Shanghai could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shanghai?
As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Shanghai in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

  • Be sure to have your ID and travel documents within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
