Cheap Flights to Cheonan from HK$550

If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a pleasant start to your vacation in Cheonan.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get cold. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

Being organized before your flight will make your trip to Cheonan quick and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
