How to survive the flight to Otaru?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a pleasant start to your holiday in Otaru.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Otaru?
Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Otaru a pleasure. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • 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 suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
