Airplane cabins are notoriously dry, and dehydration can sneak up on you mid-flight. Bring a collapsible water bottle and fill it after security. Aim to drink water every hour you’re in the air.
Bonus tip: add an electrolyte packet, like Skratch Labs, to keep your energy up and avoid that post-flight crash.
Wear breathable layers and don’t forget a cozy pair of compression socks to improve circulation. Pro travelers also pack a lightweight hoodie, like the North Face Adventure Hoodie, or large scarf that doubles as a blanket. (Psst: we might know a thing or two about comforters… 👀 that also travel well.)
Airplane seats offer little to no neck support, making it hard to rest without waking up sore. A quality neck pillow keeps your head aligned and reduces strain, especially on long flights. The HEST Pro Travel Pillow uses supportive memory foam to cradle your neck for real comfort—so you can actually sleep and arrive refreshed. Once you try it, you’ll never fly without it.
