We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Pahrump in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've pulled together some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Pahrump, here you come:

• Have your travel documents and passport handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• 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 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart 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 suitcase.
