12 Must Haves for a Plane Flight | Travel Essentials
Yay! You are going on vacation! So you have your flight booked, now time to start packing. Whether your plane flight is two hours or ten, you’ll want to be prepared with the most important items. You will learn what the best plane flight essentials are and why you should pack them.
Plane must have. You will want to buy a travel size. This size is nice because it folds up small. The regular size is a little too big. Don’t travel without this must have.
An easy way to shut off the plane craziness is to get an eye mask. Imagine the comfort now- a travel pillow, eye mask, and earphones. Listening to your favorite music or eBook and relaxing. (Get 2 FREE ebooks here!) It’s worth it.
Noise cancelling headphones are a must have. They make a huge difference. You can use earphones, but I recommend headphones. They are definitely better for a plane flight. Make sure you have your favorite music or ebooks downloaded and ready to go. Amazon Prime comes with free music! Use this coupon to get 30 days for FREE. (Cancel it after your vacation so you have free music!)
Earphones are so nice but when you are done with noise and all you want is silence, this very small investment will be worth it.
Entertainment is key to a great airplane ride. I don’t go anywhere without my iPad. Make sure you have something to do. Whether you are blogging (learn how to start a blog here), reading your favorite eBook (get free audible here), or playing a game- make sure you already have it downloaded.
Having a low battery is literally the worst thing ever. Don’t be the person that has 12% battery life and another hour left. Bring a portable charger! It’s such a cheap investment and it will save you from having a bad day.
Face it, planes are filled with GERMS. Don’t get sick, disinfect your area. I like disinfectant wipes as well as hand sanitizer for planes because you can keep your hands and your area germ free.
Most airlines have free drinks and small snacks. If you are on a longer flight or just extra hungry, you may want to bring snacks.
Travel light and safe. RDIF wallets are the safe way to travel. RDIF protects your cards from getting scanned. They are cheap and cute on Amazon! Don’t get scammed on vacation!
You never know if your plane will be freezing cold or just right. By bringing a scarf, you have a blanket. If you want to block out other people, a hoodie is a must-have. Be comfy: don’t forget fuzzy socks, sliders, oversized cardigan, dress, or the comfiest pants you own.
Planes are really dehydrating for your skin. Be prepared with hydrating mist, facial wipes, and lotion.
If you get a little motion sick from riding in a car, a plane will be very similar. Two absolute must haves for me is this all natural essential oil blend for motion sickness and this peppermint nasal inhaler. I definitely recommend buying both.
What is your favorite thing to bring on an airplane?
