Travel is expected to be record-setting at airports this year. AAA forecasts predict that Thanksgiving will be the busiest Thanksgiving for air travel since 2005. That means that it’s more important this time of year to be equipped with the necessary tools you need to make your travel experience as smooth as it possibly can.
We’ve documented travel hacks like packing a pillowcase to stuff your winter coat , apps you need while on vacation and how to tip airport shuttle drivers . But here, we’re going to focus on the products you should know about that can save you money, save you time and make your travel as comfortable as it can be if you’re flying this holiday season. Here’s what we found.
APP USERS: Click here for the best shopping experience below Take OFF Luggage — This suitcase can transform your carry-on luggage into a personal item so you can place it under the seat in front of you. That means that on a full flight where the overhead bins are full, just take off the wheels and voila, you now have a personal item. Saves time for when you land so you don’t have to check your bag while everyone else does.
It can also save you money with airlines charging to bring a carry-on bag onto a flight. Oprah’s Favorite Thing: This suitcase is getting high praise from Oprah Luggage Scale – Checking a bag? Make sure it’s at or below the weight limit so you don’t have to pay for an oversized bag, or be that person stuffing things into their backpack during the travel chaos of the holidays. Best part? It’s less than $15.
16-pack travel bottles set – Avoid TSA pulling your bag off to the side by placing your toiletries in these travel bottles and packing them into this clear bag so it’s a smooth sail through security. Alpine FlyFit – Suffer from ear pain like me when landing? Prevent ear pain with these reusable earplugs that can be used up to 100 times. Portable charger – Having a charged phone is crucial nowadays, with plane tickets now being able to be on your phone.
Keep your phone charged up while traveling, especially if your plane doesn’t have working outlets on it with one of these chargers. If you don’t have an iPhone, no worries, we found one that works for Android devices. Twelve South AirFly Bluetooth Wireless Audio Transmitter/ Receiver – Connects your AirPods or wireless headphones to the airplane entertainment system with this little gadget.
That way you don’t have to pay for a headset on the plane. This version allows for two devices to connect instead of just one in case you’re not traveling alone. Airplane phone holder – Mount this on your tray table and watch what you want to watch on your phone without having to bend your neck.
Trtl travel pillow – The design gives us infinity scarf energy, but the design is meant to offer the best neck support possible. This lightweight pillow can be easily packed into your luggage and helps keep your head and neck in an upright position. Our friends over at Good Housekeeping said one person who used this pillow on a 22-hour flight said they were able to fall asleep for the first time sitting up because of this pillow.
