We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and seeing the best of Wonjin in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
