If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a comfortable start to your getaway in Hagu-ri.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a smart option.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.
