Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Bussum vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are your best bet.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Bussum easy and painless. We've rounded up some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
