We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and enjoying Hoogwoud in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your trip to Hoogwoud quick and painless. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
