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

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and bring a sweater just in case you get chilly. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Spijkenisse, here you come:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne? 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 can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
