We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and enjoying Oud Ade in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

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, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and wear closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Oud Ade a breeze. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
