We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Nieuwpoort in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a wise idea.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Nieuwpoort in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
