what is in my Flight Attendant bag
24
items A more in depth list of what I travel with. This one is very flight attendant specific and not as traveler specific. Since some of these items might seem like a waste of space for you, but for us they are life saving.
After a long flight these are so nice to use in the shower. No need for a bath bomb. Just a shower steamer. And I feel like I am at a spa and feel so relaxed.
