Cheap Flights to Yangnyang from HK$88

If you're not prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a comfortable start to your holiday in Yangnyang. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Yangnyang before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely 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 usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
