Cheap Flights to Amanohashidate from HK$312

If you're not prepared, traveling can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Amanohashidate.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Amanohashidate a piece of cake. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
