S$146 Cheap Flights to Onomichi

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Onomichi before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Onomichi a piece of cake. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring 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 litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
