Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Paekpal vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Paekpal before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
