Do you have any tips for my flight to Otaru?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will get your Otaru escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Otaru?
The trick is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Otaru before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
