Summer Travel Season is upon us, and chances are you might be preparing for a long International Flight. Here are some of my Must-Haves for making sure you have an organized and comfortable flight!
1
Inflatable Pillow
This pillow is supposedly all the rage for getting comfortable on a long flight! It comes in a super compact bag, which is always nice. When you are ready to use it you blow it up, and then you fall asleep! You set the pillow on your tray table, loop your arms through the middle, and lean slightly forward to be super comfortable. I am super excited to try this pillow on my flight to Italy in a few weeks.
2
Sleep Mask
I bought this sleep mask last summer, and I love it! It is super lightweight, and because it has raised edges, you don't feel like your eyes are being smooshed! It also comes with a carrying case which helps keep it in great condition.
3
Glasses/Contact Case
This combo case makes it super easy to switch between contacts and glasses, without having to bring full bottles of contact solution. It has a tiny bottle that should be enough for switching into glasses for bedtime, and then switching back into contacts before landing.
4
Compression Socks
Compression socks are a Must-Have for long flights. These socks definitely help with your circulation and keep your ankles from getting super swollen by the time you land. This is a 4 pack that comes in a variety of color combinations which makes it more fun!
5
Travel Backpack
I absolutely love my travel backpack. This bag comes in tons of colors and two different size options. I have the "personal item" size, so that it fits under the seat in front of me. My bag has plenty of space for my travel pillow, my mask, and everything else I need to travel with. It has a wet bag, a laptop compartment, and a USB portal to make charging your electronics super easy. It has hidden pockets for keeping your passport as well, which I find super useful.
