We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Willemstad in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.

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

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
