Flights to Tomika, Gifu Prefecture from NT$9,701

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and exploring Tomika before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Tomika in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand 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 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
