Prepare for flying

• When you fly there are things you need to pack to make the flight easier on yourself

• Don’t get caught on a flight without any of these essential items or you might be stressed

Item 1: Neck pillow

• It doesn’t matter how tired you are, getting comfortable enough to fall asleep in an airplane seat is tough

• Even if you can close your eyes for an hour, a neck pillow will make your flight that much easier

• The last thing you want when you are traveling is a stiff neck

Item 2: Headphones

• Some airlines will provide you with headphones, but for an additional cost

• To be safe you should pack your own headphones

• Headphones help to cancel out noise and will allow you to listen to movies and music

Item 3: Medicine

• If you are prone to headaches, joint pain, nausea or anxiety be sure to have your medicine ready

• In addition to your medicine make sure you have all your prescriptions on hand

• It also isn’t a bad idea to have an over-the-counter drug like Aleve available to help

Item 4: Empty Water Bottle

• Staying hydrated during your flight is key

• You can’t take a water bottle through security with you. Luckily you can take an empty bottle with you

• You can always fill the bottle up once you get through security

Item 5: E-Reader

• Reading is a great way to pass the time while flying

• Some books are large and heavy so an e-reader can be perfect for little spaces

• An e-reader will also give you a selection of tons of books

to choose from

Item 6: Lotion

• Pressurized air inside the plane can irritate your skin and make it dry

• Lotion will help keep your skin feeling hydrated and refreshed

• Keep in mind the lotion should be in a container less than 8oz and in a Ziploc bag to meet airport security requirements

Enjoy your flight

• Flying should be a fun experience without headaches
