Flights to Jaraseom, Gapyeong from NT$4,905

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Jaraseom escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and take a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Jaraseom in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
