I think you are allowed knitting needles in your luggage that goes into the plane hold (main luggage), but you are not allowed them in your hand luggage because they can be classed as dangerous. If you want to knit on the plane, I have used pens before. If you use some thin pens or pencils, that should work.
Any store should have knitting needles.

Hi There! I have brought my knitting on a plane from Oregon to California and back. Both times I was not stopped. I had aluminum circular knitting needles. As of now, the TSA website states you can bring knitting and crochet needles and scissors under.... 3" I think. You can't bring the circular thread cutters. They should not take them from you, but it all depends on the agent you get. If he's in a sour mood, he might deem you dangerous to society and take them. Its always a risk even though they are technically allowed. That's why I don't take needles longer than 10". I try to bring plastic or wooden if possible, and I take plastic darning needles rather than metal. Most airlines should allow them, at least American airlines should. Check if you are flying with a foreign airline on their website. Hope that helps!
Practically, a loom is used for weaving. Knitting is accomplished on a knitting machine or completed by hand using knitting needles.
Yes.
They are called circular needles and they are used in exactly the same way as straight needles.
