How to survive the flight to Gwangju?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be zooming through the airport and having a blast in Gwangju in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gwangju?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Gwangju a pleasure. We’ve compiled some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
