Hey travelers! Finding what works for you while sitting an airplane seat for potentially over 8+ hours is so crucial! *Let us know in the comment your MUST HAVES!*
Make sure that your most mission-critical items (passport, wallet, medications, etc) are in or can fit in that smaller bag so if you have to gate-check your carry-on, you have the necessities (by just pulling the small bag out before gate-checking the larger bag).
I travel a lot and big fan of edc. I love your presentation style, so natural and to the point. And you have a very pleasant and clear voice. Subscribed.
Cool list! I would definitely check out the Airfly Pro for wireless connection to anything with an audio jack. You can sync up multiple devices to it. :D
It is a great device. It is great if you’re traveling with someone and you want to watch a movie together. You can sync up to the same device or tv screen and both hear it simultaneously.
About that essential oil. In Thailand they sell inhalers. Not medical stuff. It's just cheap ones with a stick of something that smells similar to vicks vaporub, in a thing you can shove up your nose and inhale. On the other end is an oil. You can dab on your skin, including under your nose. It unfortunately travels over your skin if you sweat, so I do prefer and ice gel (ize gel, I think it's spelled) or similar I rub under my nose. Also keep in mind people travel by plane who don't tolerate perfume, so the closer to your nose you can keep this smell, the better for everyone.
Last time I checked, you're not supposed to use power banks while on the flight. So you're supposed to not use them and charge straight from the plane USB if your items run out. I had not seen that before, but that seems to be across the board as of January 2024. I've used a small power bank for all flights prior, because my noise cancelling earbuds didn't last an entire long haul flight. I'll switch out the battery on those (not easy to do) and bought some new/used ones to avoid having to charge during flight. I think I might still use a power bank if I have to, but I would keep it inside a lipo bag while on the plane. I actually bought enough to keep all my batteries inside, except phone/tablet.
I am a flight attendant, have been for over 20 years. I have to say I’m impressed with your video and advice. Great tips. Keep in mind that airlines will not let you have things hanging from that seat back pocket during critical phases of flight: taxi, takeoff and landing. This is an FAA rule, as you cannot block egress to that main aisle for those critical phases which is also the reason why there is a weight limit to that seat back pocket. (Some airlines may be a little stricter about that than others.) safe travels!
Thank you for all you do! We love flight attendants because they make our travel dreams come true! & Totally, I always make sure those items fit inside the pocket too for those critical moments!
There’s a wall plug and power bank charger in one already. I got an Awei brand that’s 15K mah with built in cords for lightning and type C, also can plug in 2 more cords. Only 18w each but at least you’re bringing one less gadget
You are forgetting the AIRFLY bluetooth connector to go with your bose noise cancelling headphones - no need for cables or relying on airplane bluetooth !
Really laugh at the “muah” 😂, great travel tips for tech! Btw “mah” is usually pronounced milliamp hour (which comes from milliampere hour) measurement use to describe the capacity of a battery by describing the amperage a battery can deliver in one hour
I work overseas, so have been doing red-eye flights for most trips and can recommend a comfortable ( not tight fitting) eye mask and a covid style cloth mask thus the dry AC does not dry your eyes and nose out while doing 10 + hours flights. Also, some snacks that you like while airplane food is getting better but still tastes like cardboard (unless you are flying business but you pay for that).
With my Bose headphones, the noise cancellation doesn't work when using the 3.5mm jack, so I would recommend purchasing a bluetooth adaptor to plug into the screen and to connect wirelessly (and with noise cancellation).
