If you’re going to have plenty of URLs to be handled later on, you can use Simple 301 Redirects
(or similar) plugin available on WP Repo.
Here is the link: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-301-redirects/
The plugin offers options on WP dashboard instead of playing with htaccess file.
I’m finding it very helpful with Woocommerce site where, sometimes I have to deal with many URLs.
