  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nI would call myself an avid traveler — I try to go out of the country at least once a year. And since I'm such a frequent flyer, **travel** essentials are _more_ than nice-to-haves. I've learned quite a few hard lessons about what I do and _do_ _not_ need when it comes to ******traveling**. Instead of over-packing or forgetting essentials, keep reading for all of my Amazon favorites that will make all your travels — including those pesky 15+ hour **flights** — a _breeze._\n\n* * *\n\n## Scroll on to shop my 13 go-to Amazon travel essentials, from practical pieces of luggage to life-changing in-flight items.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Samsonite Freeform Hardside Carryon\n\nI've tried all the cute and adorable luggage on the market, but it always ends up getting scuffed, making me a target for theft (this _actually_ happened), or just being flat out impractical. So, I am a practical travel girly now. This suitcase does the job, plus it comes in a ton of colors. It fits all of my stuff, has a sturdy lock, and rolls smoothly.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Veken Packing Cube Set\n\nTake this from the girl who plans her entire suitcase packing list two weeks out: I'm a ride-or-die packing cube girl. They genuinely save the day !The worst thing in the world when traveling is having t-shirts, ******dresses**, and a million things flying around your suitcase that you can't see clearly. These **packing cubes** not only help divvy up my outfits into certain categories, but they also really condense my larger items like dresses that are hard to pressure down into the suitcase._Love these!_\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Mrsdry Travel Size Bottles\n\nI have _extremely_ sensitive skin, so I typically can't use the products that hotels or Airbnbs set out. To prevent any breakouts or rashes on my trips, I use these travel-sized containers that allow me to bring my own ******shampoos** and **lotions** to make sure I will be good to go on my trip! They're so handy, and only $9... basically a no-brainer buy!\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Eachy Travel Makeup Bag\n\nThere's no greater annoyance than having to sift through your makeup and **skincare** bag for a single product because your bag is disorganized. I love this bag because it sits flat and wide, so that you can _actually_ see everything that's inside it! It's genuinely a life-saver for traveling, especially when I'm in a rush.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Stanley IceFlow Stainless Steel Tumbler\n\nThis is an _essential_ , because who wants to pay $10 for a single bottle of airport water? This **Stanley** tumbler will keep your water cold – and save you from spending extra. Beyond your time at the terminal, this bottle is easy to tow around on your travels, thanks to the easy-to-hold handle and leak-resistant lid.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### JBL Tune Bluetooth Headphones\n\nFor all of your in-flight ******movie-watching** and music-listening, these headphones are affordable and so, _so_ good! I always take these JBLs with me when flying to keep myself entertained.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Apple AirTag\n\nWhen I was in Italy, an airline tried to say that they lost my **luggage** – but I could clearly see the AirTag located in the airport. So, I snuck to the room where I could clearly see my bag and grabbed it... maybe not my _smartest_ idea, but at least I got my luggage! These are a _must_ when traveling!\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Charmast Portable Charger\n\nA portable charger is an essential for charging on-the-go, and this one will charge almost anything. I always end up using these so much when traveling because I'm out and about for such long periods of time. Definitely a need!\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Autemtek Selfie Stick Tripod\n\nWhenever I'm traveling, I always end up having the same dilemma: only pictures of myself, and _none_ of my husband or the other person I'm traveling with. Don't get me wrong: I love a good fit pic (it's the content creator in me), but I never end up getting group photos! So, I started packing this tripod so that I can take a pictures without bothering people who may not even take that good of a photo.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Kimiandy Inflatable Travel Air Pillow\n\nFunny story about this pillow: I bought it for a 13-hour flight to Paris, and when I was blowing it up my husband was _so_ embarrassed because he thought it was silly and unnecessary. Fast forward three hours later, and he's fully knocked out and sleeping on it. Take it from me: this is an _essential_ for long flights, especially when you need some shut-eye!\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Airplane Foot Hammock\n\nYou're going to think I'm crazy, but I promise you that this is an absolute plane essential! It simply hangs on your pull-out tray so you can put your feet up and feel _way_ more comfy. Once you buy this, you won't be able to fly any other way. It takes so much pressure off of your neck, knees, and back and makes traveling so much more comfortable. I can't travel without it!\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Glam Up Face Masks\n\nI hate to say it, but I am _that_ traveler. I have to have face masks with me because they make me feel so moisturized and clean on stale, dry flights. Plus, they're very cooling, which is an added bonus!\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### Touchland Power Mist Hydrating Hand Sanitizer Sprays\n\nI'm really weird about airport germs, and with more and more people traveling while sick, I like to be safe and have these sprayable hand sanitizers with me. They just help to get rid of bacteria and keep me feeling clean on a long flight!\n\n**Subscribe toour newsletter to shop more editor-approved travel picks!**\n\n_Brit + Co may at times use affiliate links to promote products sold by others, but always offers genuine editorial recommendations._\n\n_This post has been updated._",
