Flights to Anseong, Gyeonggi from NT$635

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Anseong could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Anseong, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
