Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Daejeon could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We’ve put together some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. First of all you’ll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks is also recommended.
