• The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It’s also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and don’t forget to pack a jacket just in case you get chilly. Pick roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Nagoya easy and painless. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don’t hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. 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.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It’s also likely that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
