We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of Niigata in next to no time.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea too.
Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Niigata?

Accepted Answer

The answer is simple — be organized. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Niigata, here you come:

Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
