How to survive the flight to Yongji-ri?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Yongji-ri could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Yongji-ri?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Yongji-ri a pleasure. Here are some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, 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 need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
