Cheap Flights to Toyama from HK$618

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Toyama could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure 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:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Toyama before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Have your boarding pass and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually 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 inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
