• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Holland a pleasure. Below are some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
