We researched, tested and reviewed hundreds of items before landing on these. Here is what is going with us.
Our top picks for travel and waiting entertainment for children are detailed here.
Without further ado:
Headphones – these are head and shoulders above the competition when it comes to battery life, noise canceling, and sound quality. Great for music, perfect for making calls, and it really does block any outside sounds. It fit my 9 year old and my husband. The headphones fold and the case is high quality and still sleek. The brown is SO chic, but they have other colors too. The price is impressive considering the quality too!
Travel pillow.
My whole family chose this one, and not just because it came with the phone holder, eye mask and ear plugs. We loved the memory foam fabric, the size, the bag it folds into for compact storage. You can pop it in your bag if you have room, wear it on your neck, of clip it to the outside of your carry on in the bag.
Personal item. But its actually a backpack, clutch, crossbody, and purse. See that leather pocket – that detaches and has straps to transform. It is just so smart. The luggage sleeve makes it perfect to slip on top of a rolling carry on for easy airport navigation. And the cup holders – the icing on the cake! Small woman owned company, BIG quality. SHOP HERE
Motion sickness solution. We tried them ALL. And when they don’t work in our family, the consequences are dire. This delivered on planes, in the back seat of cars, roller coasters, and on boats. SHOP HERE.
Baby airplane travel hammock. Hands free baby holding. Folds down into a tiny pouch for easy transport. Worth it!
Travel clothing can be so confusing, what to pack, how much of it, will the weather change… we always trust Anatomie to outfit us with exactly what we need. This Florida based family owned company has been dressing men and women for travel for over 20 years. Each item is lightweight, can be washed in a hotel sink and dries quick. They design the clothing to be timeless and work together. From safari to shore, they have you covered. If you need extra help, call Joe at the Palm Beach store and he will put together a collection just for your trip.
For durable and affordable luggage this is our favorite brand. They are eco friendly, family owned, and stand behind their products. Plus, the variety of colors makes it easy to assign one to each family member.
