We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Chuncheon in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Chuncheon, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
