We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Hallum in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Hallum a breeze. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
