These instructions worked for me to get some of my DVDs onto my iPad for my last family vacation:

As far as security goes, the iPad should be able to stay in it's bag but I've been told at least twice so far to take it out because it "has a hard disk in it and must come out of the bag". I usually take it out just to avoid the risk of having to wait while it's taken out and run back thru the xray again.
