Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Tonghe County could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Here are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
