Flights to Inzai, Chiba Prefecture from NT$5,328

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Inzai could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Inzai in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
