7 Carry-On Essentials for a Smooth Flight, According to Travel Experts

 

Here are seven carry-on essentials recommended by travel reporters to make your next flight as smooth as possible:

  1. Fanny Pack: Keep your essential items like your wallet, boarding pass, keys, and passport easily accessible by wearing a fanny pack. This helps avoid the hassle of digging through your bag.

  2. Foot Hammock: A small, portable foot hammock can make a big difference in comfort, especially on long flights. It attaches to the tray table and allows you to rest your feet comfortably.

  3. Toothbrush and Toothpaste: Freshen up during long flights with a toothbrush and toothpaste. Keeping these in your carry-on ensures they’re easily accessible.

  4. Travel Blanket or Scarf: Airplanes can get quite cold, so having a light blanket or scarf can keep you warm and comfortable.

  5. Compression Socks: These help improve circulation and reduce swelling during long flights, making your journey more comfortable.

  6. Hand Sanitizer and Wipes: Keep your hands clean and sanitize your seating area with hand sanitizer and wipes.

  7. Entertainment: Bring a book, Kindle, or download movies and music to keep yourself entertained during the flight.
