Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Sokcho holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
