Flights to Dongen, North Brabant from NT$5,354

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and exploring Dongen in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with 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 good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure 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:

• 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 by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Dongen a breeze. Below you'll find some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
