Inappropriate to ask HR for alternative travel date?

My MM will be flying me from my regional office to their headquarters for training at the start of my SA stint. I have quite a few friends in the area an I was curious if it would be seen as inappropriate to ask HR if i could fly in a day or two early so I could visit them. Any advice would be appreciated.
