Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Hulunbuir could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Always opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Hulunbuir a breeze. We've rounded up some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
