Flights to Hines, Oregon from

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your time in Hines. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are always good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of 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.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Hines a breeze. We've compiled some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
