Cheap Flights to Julianadorp from HK$1,524

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Julianadorp. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Julianadorp a pleasure. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
