In the past twelve months, I've boarded flights from Kailua-Kona to the continental U.S. five times. Most of my flights are to Seattle, Washington. Inflight time is about five and a half hours and the return flight is longer due to headwinds--not extremely long, but long enough to warrant some thoughtful selections for my carry-on. One of my friends refers to these as comfort items.
At the top of my list is my Kindle. It's always loaded with several unread books, a few games, and a couple of downloaded movies. As long as I have my charger, I'm good to go. One of my favorite things is the number of writing craft books I have at my fingertips at all times.
I've tried a variety of pillows and have settled on these two: a self inflating lumbar pillow and a neck pillow that typically ends up cushioning my elbow.
I always take a hoodie with a zipper. I like that I can pull up the hood if cold air is creeping down my neck.
A variety of products to keep hands clean and eyes and lips moist are nestled in a ziplock.
And I always have some gluten-free snacks.
What do you consider comfort items when you travel?
