Make Long Flights Comfortable Now
I confess—while I love traveling, I’m not exactly a fan of flying. It takes up so much of your vacation time—driving to the airport, arriving early, standing in endless lines, waiting, sitting, more waiting, navigating immigration and customs… If only I had a magic ring to whisk me away instantly! But since that’s not an option, I’m always looking for ways to make the journey more comfortable without splurging on business class. Here are a few of my favorite hacks to make long flights comfortable.
Airplane Foot Hammock
I’m all about traveling light—carefully selecting what makes the cut for my journey. But there’s one gem I try to bring with me. You see, I have a tendency to lean my knees against the seat in front of me for some added comfort, but it’s not always feasible. Enter: the hammock. This new leg rest for airplane travel will arrive in a convenient travel bag, making it easy to carry. Its adjustable height allows me to find the perfect position and you just hang it around the tray. Not only does it alleviate swelling and relieve stiff legs, but it also eases backaches and improves blood flow. This way, I can effortlessly rest my iPad on my legs, making those long flights a breeze. Plus, it’s as light as a feather! Trust me, this one’s a game-changer.
Airplane Phone Holder
This must-have accessory is a real game-changer! Because where do you usually stash your phone during flights? The seat pocket? Not ideal, especially with the risk of finding it mixed with dirty napkins. As for the food tray, I like to keep it closed and tidy. And if you’re like me, tired of playing phone hide-and-seek every half-hour, this is your solution. It’s perfect for hands-free entertainment, keeping kids occupied, video calls, and even group selfies so you can use this in every day life, too! ✈️
Collapsible Water Bottle
From flights to hikes, gym sessions to workdays, this versatile bottle has you covered. It’s your ultimate companion for staying hydrated on the move. Once you’ve quenched your thirst, simply collapse it and tuck it into your bag—it’s effortless convenience at its best! Crafted from silicone and BPA-free materials, it’s not only practical but also eco-friendly, giving you peace of mind with every sip. So, whether you’re jetting off on an adventure or tackling your daily routine, stay hydrated and planet-conscious with this essential accessory! ??

Travel Pillow
Okay, so full disclosure: I totally stole this pillow from my husband. At first, I scoffed at the idea of lugging around this seemingly silly pillow.

It’s like a cloud for your noggin, offering unparalleled comfort, especially during those marathon red-eye flights. So, yes, I may have stolen it, and yes, I may have looked a tad ridiculous at first. But trust me, once you experience the blissful comfort, you’ll never want to let go.
