Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Haenam could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
