Cheap Flights to Lincoln City

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Lincoln City. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

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

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Lincoln City quick and painless. Read through our useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required 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 on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
