We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a blast in Beerse in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Beerse in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Have your passport and travel documents close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
