Cheap Flights to Polaca from HK$1,720

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Polaca escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Polaca easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
