• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organized. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Changji, here you come:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
