• The trick to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks may also help.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Pungsan in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
