Cheap Flights to Poissy from HK$770

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Poissy could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Poissy in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
