Cheap Flights to Kiyosu from HK$457

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a comfortable start to your vacation in Kiyosu.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Kiyosu a pleasure. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
