Flights to Muju, Jeonbuk from NT$3,411

If you're not prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a comfortable start to your time in Muju.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy --- first, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited 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:

• The key to a comfortable flight is 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 sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Muju in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Have your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
