Flights to Comanche, Oklahoma from

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a pleasant start to your time in Comanche. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray 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 objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Comanche, here you come:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
