The coronavirus crisis was frustrating for most people. As travel slowed down, plans we had carefully planned vanished. It's no surprise then that now that travel is back, we are rushing to get our travel shopping list ready and getting ready for our next flight.
Why not make the most of our vacation time and fly again? If you're anything like me, compulsively shopping online has replaced the joy of booking travel during the coronavirus epidemic. Before we get back to checking off items on our bucket lists, let's make a list.
A Travel Pillow
Although I was late to the travel pillow revolution, it is now a staple item on my packing list.
Although I travel hack with points cards and seek out great deals, I often fly coach. Nothing is worse than not being able to fall asleep during a long, economy flight.
A solid pillow is a great option! Amazon's AirComfy Ease Inflatable Pillow is my favorite. It retails for $19.99.
These pillows are extremely comfortable and will allow you to adjust to a comfortable position on your flight. The best part is that they don't take up much space. You can store the inflatable pillow in a small bag to keep it safe.
Universal International Travel Power Adapter
A traveler's must-have is an international power adapter. The SAUNROCH Universal International Travel Power Adapter is my favorite, and it's only $19.59 on Amazon.com (currently with an additional 20 percent discount).
This compact device packs five USB ports into one. One port is USB-C, which allows for lightning-fast charging of smartphones and iPads. The other four ports are standard USB ports. You can also charge any other device using the universal socket.
This adapter is compatible with more than 150 countries. With plugs for Australia, Europe, UK and the United States.
This adapter is my favorite. I have three and have given away two. Order one today! I know you'll be grateful for it on your next trip.
A light suit
This one is for you guys! When you travel, it is essential to bring a suit or a blazer.
It's possible to need a more formal outfit for an event or date on a trip. There is nothing worse than not having a suit in your luggage. Except if you're in Antarctica, a penguin suit is not necessary.
Hall Madden is the best place to find a high-quality suit. They offer bespoke, made-to-measure suits and affordable prices. They also offer Lords of Wool, which is a great option for anyone who wants a well-fitting, good-looking suit. I love their tweed suits.
Lords of Wool is not able to make a custom suit. However, they can reduce sleeves and lengthen the taper, adjust the taper and adjust the taper according to client feedback. You can get a solid deal starting at $385 for your blazer and $500 to your basic suit.
Noise Canceling Headphones
It's not difficult to see why noise-canceling headphones should be an essential part of any flight. There has been many times when you wished you had brought a pair of headphones, such as on a flight with a crying baby.
Sonys WH1000XM3 is my choice for noise-canceling headphones. They are currently on sale at Amazon for $162.99 (a huge discount).
Some might argue that Apple's over-ear AirPods Max headphones are better. Sony's top-of the-line headphone offerings are, for me personally, the best in the noise-canceling market.
Do yourself a favor, order the WH1000XM3 before you go on your next trip.
First Aid Kit
Yes, I will admit it. This is my own opinion. My travel packing list does not include a first aid kit.
Although a complete kit is not necessary, it's a good idea for at least some basic first aid items to be brought on your trips.
I bring Ibuprofen and Emergen-C along with bandaids and Neosporin whenever I travel.
Depending on your travel style, you might want to pack Hydrocortisone or Pedialyte powder as well as a blister care kit.
Pro-tip: My friend told me that it can be difficult to obtain emergency contraception in certain countries.
It is crucial to ensure that you have adequate travel insurance and coverage for any destination where you're traveling.
Passport Insurance
As a frequent flyer, a cover that protects your passport is a great way to express yourself and your personality.
You are not restricted in your choices!
This beautiful Herms is $540. There are also options on Amazon that are less expensive, such as this one for $28.99, or custom-made options with customs stamps.
No matter what you choose, a holder protects your most important travel document while allowing you to show your individual style on the road.
Mask for the Face
All of us were responsible travellers. This is why we ordered all of our stuff online and not from a shop. If we are being truthful, we don't need this stuff for our next trip. We already have them.
Masks will likely be required for boarding the plane.
There are many fun options, but I chose this mask from American Mask Project that I ordered on Amazon. For just $3.75, you can get a set of two.
This expandable, machine washable black mask is not the most elegant.
Other Products
There are many deals available online that will suit your needs, no matter what you plan for your next getaway. This is a great time for stocking up. This list was helpful, but perhaps you have a different travel shopping list.
Either a top-of the-line drone or a casual drone?
A fancy camera such as the Sony Alpha A7 III?
How to filter water bottles? Rain jacket?
An adapter that can be used to charge your phone at the airport.
What is a backup power bank?
If you are planning to travel, ensure that youre covered. American Express recently expanded their travel insurance coverage on their premium cards, making them an excellent choice.
