Cheap Flights to Kawasaki from HK$339

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Kawasaki in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Kawasaki, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
