Dot & Dot Twist Memory Foam Travel Pillow

Sure, a comfortable travel pillow is a long-haul flight essential — and this flight attendant-approved one certainly fits the bill with its cloud-like memory foam stuffing — but that’s not the only reason this pillow is a game-changer. It has another secret use, too. Savvy travelers are actually using it to sneak three days’ worth of extra clothes through TSA without paying checked bag fees. How?

Travelambo Faux Leather Luggage Tags

Quality luggage tags are must-haves for so many reasons; first, they’re a great way to identify your bags among a sea of others, especially during busy travel seasons at crowded airports.

And third, a good luggage tag like this one protects that personal info with a privacy flap; you only need to lift it slightly to see the information card to make sure this is your tag. These tags have two side printing information cards so you can put two different addresses, both on the front side and the backside.

Sometimes, we wish we could surpass that TSA 3.4-ounce liquid carry-on limit. But since we can’t, these aluminum shell portable clear vials are great for carrying our favorite perfumes when traveling. They come in a set of four and are so easy to use and easy to fill/refill. All you need to do is to press the bottom against your favorite perfume gauge and keep clicking until it is filled.
