Do you have any tips for my flight to Gyangze County?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your time in Gyangze County. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
  • Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gyangze County?
It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Gyangze County, here you come:

  • Keep your ID and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
