Cheap Flights to Poros from HK$360

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Poros could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks can also help.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Poros quick and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
