How to survive the flight to Okkwa-ri?

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a comfortable start to your time in Okkwa-ri.What to pack in your hand luggage:

Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Okkwa-ri?

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Okkwa-ri, here you come:

Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine 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 litre), clear zip-close bag.
There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
