that’ll suit baby and you. Keep some
clean wipes, a hand sanitiser, deodorant,
lotions, Vaseline, anything you think you
might need on a long flight to keep you
fresh and germ free. A tin of mints never
killed anyone, but bad breath just might.
Warm Clothes
We know it’s going to be a long flight and
your ideal attire consists of a wife beater
and shorts, but it’s also best to pack a pair
of socks and maybe even a scarf just in
case. Long flights tend to get really chilly!
Conclusion
Flying is tough, but doing it without these
essentials make it a whole lot tougher. So
check this list before boarding next time.

Portable Powerbank
For those times when you’re stuck at the
airport with no free ports, pull out your
powerbank and stay connected.
Comfortable Footwear
High heeled stilettos and long flights
don’t go together, so trade in the red-soled
beauties for something a little more
practical. Opt for soft sneakers.
Snacks
Though most airlines offer an array
of munchies on-board, they can be
ridiculously expensive. So bring on a
bag of pistachios or pack a protein bar.
Adaptors or Converters
Depending on where you’re headed to,
you might want to do some research on
the power outlets. With all the technology
we need to function e.g. hand phones,
laptops; these adaptors will save your
life. Some countries even require a
higher voltage for items to work! Surge
protectors can be your lifesavers.
Document Pouch
Keep all your important documents with
you at all times. Whether you’re in the
airport bathroom, or taking a snooze in
the lounge, clutch those babies with the
strength of God. The easiest way to keep
your passport or papers safe is to get a
little pouch and hang it around your neck.
