We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Charleroi in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

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 box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Charleroi, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. 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 coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
