Cheap Flights to Otake from HK$667

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Otake could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Otake quick and painless. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Travelling with a new hand cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
