If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Ponca City.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Ponca City, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
