Cheap Flights to Kunisaki from HK$3,414

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Kunisaki could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

The trick is to be well organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kunisaki before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
