We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and discovering Okegawa in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Okegawa quick and painless. Below are some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
