• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don’t forget to bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

It’s all about being prepared. We’ve pulled together some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Higashiizu, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
