Cheap Flights to Ajigasawa from HK$2,307

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ajigasawa could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and bring a jacket just in case you get chilly. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ajigasawa in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
