Make Flying & Traveling enjoyable. Even in coach! - a list by Yournewbestfriend
Options for This Page
About this list:
Nowadays, flying is a lot different that it used to be. This is my list of essentials I always make sure to have before embarking on the tedious airport-airplane journey. Sure to make your coach seat seem a bit more bearable (crying babies sitting next to you excluded).
Qualifications:
Learned from years of in-flight discomfort.
Feel Like You've Been Upgraded Inflight Comfort Kit
First to recommend
Description
This kit has everything you need (except 4 more feet of leg room) to let you relax in comfort while traveling. An inflatable neck pillow, a soft eye mask, earplugs, paper soap, and hand and face wipes. Order a cocktail, breathe, and sink into a sublime sleep. (I wish it was that easy on a flight).

Just type your memoirs all day, then when you reach your computer you can plug it in via USB or SD card and voila - the files are there for you to edit or toy with as needed.

Thumb Thing Book Holder

2 people recommended this item
Description
Oh my gosh! This is by far a must have. You know when you're at the beach and want to hold the book with one hand because your arms are tired but you can't because the dumb book won't stay open? I do. This solves those pesky problem situations. It slips onto your thumb and props the book open for your one-handed reading pleasure. Great for reading in bed, in the bath, on the beach, or during your commute (subway-esque commute people - not while driving!). And it works as a delightful bookmark when not in use. Oh Thumb Thing! What would I do without you?

La Fresh Travel Nail Polish Remover
3 people recommended this item
Description
I hate bringing the entire bottle of nail polish remover when I go on trips. These are the perfect solution. Each towelette is pre-moistened with nail polish remover. Easy to keep in your purse for those nail-emergencies or for next time you spend too much time in the pool in Vegas and need a pedicure re-do.

Dissolving Laundry Paper Soap
2 people recommended this item
Description
I'll be traveling around Argentina for 3 months this winter (their summer - haha) and will need to do laundry along the way. But who wants to carry laundry detergent around in their minimalist packed bags? This is the perfect solution. Just throw them into the washer, or use them for handwashing.
