Cheap Flights to Yokosuka from HK$505

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Check out these handy tips that will help get your Yokosuka holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Yokosuka in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
