We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a ball in Valkenburg aan de Geul in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Valkenburg aan de Geul a piece of cake. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
