Cheap Flights to Narawa from HK$741

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Narawa could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Narawa, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item 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.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
