My long haul flight must haves
11
items I travel on long haul, overnight flights at least twice a year. These are some items that get me through the flight and allow me to travel as comfortably as possible.
I switched my travel pillow out for the Turtl pillow about three years ago now. I've really enjoyed it because I am able to lean my head more forward, which is more comfortable than leaning it to the side like a normal travel pillow. I also use the e...
Trtl Travel Neck Pillow
I switched my travel bag to one of these recently because it has a waist strap which is useful to shift some weight to my hips and reduce the pulling on my shoulders. And while it is a bit smaller than my previous bag it has enough sections to split ...

I've bought a few Bobby Yarn bags for myself and my friends. They make great travel bags. Good quality. Different sizes to suit different folks. I personally love my smaller rectangle cross body bag. I can clip my hand sanitizer on the strap clip and...

I always travel with a scarf tied onto my bags handle. You never quite know if the plane is going to be chilly or not so it's handy to have my scarf with me always. I would recommend a cotton one for the plane. The sheer ones won't keep you warm and ...

A clip on hand sanitizer is a must have for planes. I always do a wipe down of my seat and table and having a clip one one attached to my bag means it's accessible.

I always wipe my plane seat and table with hand sanitizer and wipes. I never trust them to clean them well enough and the last thing I want is to get sick on my holiday. But wipes can be wasteful so try to opt for a bio version like this.

I like to wear my Nikes on the plane. They're comfy enough for all the walking around the airport and also grippy in case I need to hurry up!
Also easy to slip on and off, plus that way I'm also taking my gym shoes with me, without having to pack the...

A light but comfy windbreaker is really useful. Sometimes the plane is chillier than expected so I need a jacket and I like one with a good for added warmth. Other times it's too hot so something with a zip that's easy to take off, and also not too t...
Essential Tri Windbreaker Jacket
My bamboo socks don't quite cut on my travels. I prefer something longer wearing and thicker but you can always pack a thinner pair of socks in your bag if you're worried about being too cold or too hot (can have both options :) )

My pet peeve on a long flight is my bra. It digs into my skin and is very uncomfortable to try and sleep in. So instead I switch to sports style bras, that don't have wiring and thin straps. These aren't bras I'd actually use for sports I'd need more...

A visor style cap is the best for me. I'm generally changing hemispheres when flying overnight and sometimes you end up outside in the bright sunlight without any sunscreen on, getting burnt (I'm rather pale!). Easy to slip this around my cross body ...
