If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your holiday in De Kwakel. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat and easy to slip on and off.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out De Kwakel, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
