No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’ve prepared well enough. We’ve made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Kyoto escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It’s easy — first, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

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 liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• You’ve probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There’s plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Kyoto in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
• 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 trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Don’t forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine 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-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
