We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and discovering Borrego Springs in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Borrego Springs a piece of cake. Check out our handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
