Cheap Flights to Yesan from HK$279

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a hassle-free start to your holiday in Yesan. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear closed-toe, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Yesan, here you come:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, 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), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
