There are a few items I always always always bring with me on flights (regardless of how long or short), and they make the whole experience so much more pleasant.
1. Water. So much water.
2. Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory English Toffee Apple, pre-sliced for easy on-plane consumption.
3. Favorite Elizabeth and James sunglasses.
4. Isabella Fiore’s roomy satchel, which holds everything from magazines to computer to outstanding airport finds.
5. Elizabeth Arden Eight-Hour Cream and Eight-Hour Cream Lip Protectant Gloss, which I use on everything from lips to cuticles to eyebrows to elbows.
6. Earplugs. A recent discovery (from the week I spent staying at my parents’ place with way too many people and animals), and they are amazing.
7. Simple Skincare’s Cleansing Facial Wipes, which are fantastic for getting off absolutely everything, and also mean one less thing I have to put in a sealed Ziploc bag to go through security.
8. A big, cozy scarf for staying warm on a chilly flight (I love this one from Chamula).
9. A watch, so I can always keep track of my time zone.
