Cheap Flights to Lupeni from HK$1,326

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Lupeni could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being organised before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Lupeni easy and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
