Cheap Flights to Baarle-Hertog from CA $133

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Baarle-Hertog could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Baarle-Hertog a pleasure. Below you'll find some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
