We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Uoya Machi in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and opt for easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Uoya Machi a breeze. Below you'll find some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
