Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Niseko could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve compiled some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It’s easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you’ll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your getaway to Niseko easy and painless. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Can’t travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It’s also possible you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
