Cheap Flights to Upland from HK$779

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Upland could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Upland in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Have your passport and travel documents within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
