Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Yeongju holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
