We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in Yeongcheon before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Yeongcheon in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
