With the rise in lost bags, I wouldn’t travel without Apple Air Tags. You’ll know exactly where your bag is at all times. If your bag doesn’t arrive at your destination, you can help the airline track your bag. We don’t usually check our bags, but some International carriers only allow one carry-on, and when bins fill up, bags get checked.

Travelpro Luggage has been a flight attendant favorite for years. I’ve had my Travelpro luggage for about 12 years, and it has survived some serious wear and tear. This is the Crew Versapack Softside Expandable 8 Spinner Wheel Luggage.

I’m loving my LOVEVOOK Laptop Backpack. It’s the perfect blend of style, functionality, and durability at a reasonable price! It has a luggage strap and lots of pockets and comes in so many beautiful colors.

Don’t travel without shoe bags… The liquid on the lavatory floor might not be water. Protect your clean clothes with a shoe bag.

A Travel Laundry bag will help you separate your clean and dirty clothes.

I’ve seen so many people spill their coffee trying to juggle their bags. Make your life easy with a Luggage Cup Holder Free Hand Drink Caddy for Suitcases.

Love the BAGSMART Toiletry Bag. Great quality and I can fit quite a bit in it. It comes in a medium and large size.

Hotels are notorious for having bad lighting, so I always pack my travel makeup mirror with lights. It also has come in handy on girl’s trips when sharing bathrooms. This Mecion Mirror is perfect, it’s small and folds up. It has a magnifying mirror and several light settings, and the brightness is great.

This jewelry organizer case by BAGSMART is made well and holds lots of jewelry. There are snaps for hanging necklaces, a spot for rings, bracelets, and earrings. It comes in a small and medium size.

I always travel with a portable phone charger. I recently purchased the TG 90 Mini Power Bank. It’s small and compatible with iPhone and Android Cell phones.

I had the nicest passenger give me this Perilogics Airplane Phone Holder Mount. I love it! The mount is adjustable, allowing you to find the perfect viewing angle.

If you’re traveling with children get the TrayMask Disposable Tray Table Covers. We do not clean tray tables between flights. I wouldn’t risk having your children get sick.

I always travel with antibacterial wipes. I use them to clean my tray table, remote controls in hotel rooms, etc.


We purchased this One Beat power strip for our Mediterranean cruise. Cruise ships don’t have many charging outlets. It has a no surge protector for cruise ship travel, which cruise ships require.

This set of clear cases (comes in a 3-pack) is a TSA-approved toiletry bag. They are heavy-duty and waterproof. The clear vinyl makes it easy to see everything.

This is a great luggage scale by BAGAIL. It’s digital, small, lightweight and easy to use. Perfect for carrying on International trips so you don’t have to pay extra baggage fees.

I always carry a travel umbrella if there is a chance of rain. I like being prepared and they are small and don’t take up too much space. This 2-pack Travel Umbrella is by VOUUY. It is sturdy and opens and closes easily.

Don’t forget European Travel Plug Adapters when traveling to Europe. This TESSAN International Power Outlet Adaptor comes in a 2 pack. It works in most of Europe, including Spain, Iceland, Germany, France, Italy, and Israel.

These are compression packing cubes from BAGSMART. They have 6 sets that will help save space in your luggage and keep you organized throughout your trip.

Veken: 8 set packing cubes in 4 sizes. Helps you pack more in your bag.

If you are prone to motion sickness bring Dramamine on your next flight. They also make Dramamine for kids.

I always travel with a pill organizer. This organizer is by MEACOLIA. It comes in a 3-pack and has 8 Compartments and is cuter than most.

I recommend bringing a collapsible water bottle on your next flight. I like that you can fold it up when not in use. Metal water bottles can be dangerous. I’ve seen them land on passengers’ heads and they roll around at top speeds on take-off and landing. This bottle is by TakeToday, it’s reusable and leakproof.

Love this small sling bag from Evancary. It has multiple pockets, an adjustable shoulder strap, and it’s affordable.

I always carry my silk eye mask in my bag. Hotel room curtains never seem to completely close (even after using the clothes hanger). I’ve used the BeeVines adjustable silk eye mask for about a year and still love it.

I packed my INICAT small sling cross-body bag for our vacation to Europe. I like that it’s big enough to fit my phone, wallet, etc. but yet not too big. I bought it in white and love it!

Wireless headphone adapters allow wireless earbuds to connect to a device that doesn’t have Bluetooth capabilities using the headphone jack. You can also use this at the gym, in cars, and in handheld gaming systems. This also gives you the ability to connect 2 users at once.

This is a 4 in 1 watch & phone charger cable by TOP-UP. It’s compatible with Apple Watch, iPhone, Galaxy, Pixel, Android, pods & more. Great for traveling and to keep in your car.

You can never have enough bag tags. These Leather Luggage Tags have a Privacy Cover and Stainless Steel Loop. They have super cute designs. BLOCIT

Mrsdry Travel Bottles: Tsa Approved 3oz Portable Travel Bottles, Leak proof with Clear Toiletry Bag.

Gemice Travel Containers: TSA approved leak-proof containers.

SinkSuds Laundry Detergent: Great to bring on long trips when you don’t have access to a washer. Great for cruises!

So-Mine Commuter Essential Bag: I love this bag! Put all important items you’ll need during your flight in this bag. I see so many people in the aisle during boarding digging through their bags…if only they had this bag! :) I wish I could hand these out.

Travel Compression Socks: For men and women… helps prevent leg swelling, blood clots, cramps, etc.

Roll Up Compression Bags: 12 bags in various sizes. Save space by up to 80% with no vacuum needed. Just seal the zipper and roll out the air… will stay compressed.

Blister Bandages, Blister Pads: Better to be safe than sorry. These are thin and waterproof.

BAGSMART Toiletry Bag for Men: Medium or large size. Has plenty of compartments and great for holding travel bottles.
