Top 5 flight essentials to make flight experience better

January 20, 2025


These are the things I use to make my plane ride as easy and enjoyable as possible. All the below are things I can not go on a flight without anymore. I would say they are absolutely essential for your best experience!


Noise Canceling Headphones

Great to block out any loud noise, but also good for the noise you don’t think about, like engine noise. After you start wearing these on your flights, you won’t be able to go back. Essential for sleeping!

These are the exact headphones I have and they are amazing!

Eye Sleep Mask

Block out any lights and distractions when you are trying to get some rest to make sure you get off the flight feeling your best. The 3-D masks are great to keep eyelashes fresh.

Chewy

Chewy gum is great for your popping ears as it helps equalise pressure in your ears during takeoff and landing. A snack may also do the same thing if you are feeling a little hungry.


Download Entertainment

Download movies, shows, music, podcasts, or audiobooks to your phone so you have them for your flight. Avoid relying on in-flight entertainment and give entertainment on those budget airlines that don’t have any.


Compression Socks

As I am getting older, I realise how much of a difference they make for long flights! Help improve circulation, reduce swelling, and prevent discomfort on long-haul flights.
