Do you have any tips for my flight to Shimonoseki?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and enjoying Shimonoseki in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
  • You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shimonoseki?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Shimonoseki a pleasure. Below you'll find some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
