I found myself looking for a guide to flying within the United States, but found nothing on the subject! So I created this article.

First things first, to get this out of the way I am stealing a line from tsa.gov/real-id. “Beginning October 1, 2020, every air traveler 18 years of age and older will need a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license, state-issued enhanced driver’s license, or another acceptable form of ID to fly within the United States.”

Travel light. Use a carry-on if you can. Make sure it’s TSA approved. No fluids over 100 ml or 3.4 ounces per container. All containers must fit within a 1 quart (1 liter) clear, transparent plastic zip lock bag.

Travel tip 1: Buy or use a colorful and easily identifiable travel case.

Travel tip 2: Bring an empty water bottle to fill up once you pass security.

Travel tip 3: Bring a change of clothes or pajamas to wear on the flight.

Travel tip 4: Check in online if you can.

ok most of this stuff is coming from this video.

Additionally check out this article.

Im too lazy to finish this so hopefully the two links above help you.
