Smart Gear for Smoother Travels
- Smart Luggage: Upgrade your suitcase with features such as an Apple AirTag and AirTag holders so when your bag doesn't join you, you can quickly determine it's location. AirTags are useful tracking tools for your car, your backpack or any other easily mislaid item you value.
- Luggage Scale: We have carried this lightweight, easy-to-use luggage scale with us for years. It's an easy way to avoid overweight baggage fees.
- Portable Travel Chargers: When we travel, we take tons of photos on our iPhone which quickly runs down a battery. That's why we suggest this small, light-weight charger to keep us snapping on long travel days.
- Travel Adapter - Technology has helped make these critical devices smaller and easier to use. This adapter works in 200+ countries, has a 4.8 rating and is easy to pack.
Items to Make Flying More Comfortable
- Foot Hammock: If you're flying for a few hours or more in economy. This clever invention might make you a bit more comfortable. Just attach it to your tray table arms and Voila! a little hammock to elevate your feet giving your legs a nice break.
- Noise-Canceling Headphones: The choices ... from inexpensive to crazy expensive. These Sony headphones are on the higher end but have a 4.8 rating from 813 verified purchasers. They come with a built in mic to take/make phone calls and direct Alexa to do your bidding.
- Travel Pillows and Blankets: Not excited about the airline's blankets and pillow? Rest comfortably with an ergonomic travel pillow and sleep mask to make a long journey more bearable.
Wellness, Health and Beauty on the Road
- Packing Cubes and Organizers: Packing cubes are one of our favorite ways to organize our clothes while gone for a week or more. Bring an extra to stash your dirty clothes to keep things separated. This set has a mesh front helping you quickly find what you need.
- Travel-Sized Toiletries: Most of us have our go-to travel size products. Need a travel cosmetic bag upgrade? Consider one that includes TSA approved toiletry containers. A few easily packed items make your trip more pleasant (ladies, ever found yourself in the restroom with no paper products, the worst!) Or need a quick refresh after a long plane ride?
- Travel Health Kits: Be prepared for any health emergency with compact first aid kits and travel-friendly medication organizers. If you're not a water drinker, you may be prone to dehydration. Carry these along to keep you out of trouble.
- Portable Fan: Planning a trip to a destination that's warm? Pack this little fan to make the heat more bearable!
- Safety Gadgets: Ensure your personal safety with items like RFID-blocking credit card sleeves, portable door locks, cross-body bags and more.
- Wrinkle Free Clothes: It's tough packing and unpacking and maintaining a crisp, fresh look. We are big fans of Downy Wrinkle Release Spray for easy touch-ups on the go. Keep your clothes fresh with a hand-held steamer. Two caveats - most steamers can't handle overseas voltage even with a power converter. If you have access to a real 120v outlet (such as on a cruise ship), you are good. The other thing is that most cruise lines list them as "do not bring."
