Flights to Uam, Goheung from

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Uam could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be the goal when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a good idea.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Uam, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
