Flights to Ash Grove, Missouri from

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Ash Grove escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get cold. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Ash Grove, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
