Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Seosan vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cool. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Seosan quick and painless. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
