Cheap Flights to Poppi from HK$835

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Poppi could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Poppi in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
