￥5,930 Cheap Flights to Kurashiki

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Kurashiki could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kurashiki before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
