TOP 10 ACCESSORIES FOR FLYING

 Whenever you travel you want to pack as many items as you can. At that point of time every article seems to be essential. However, that becomes slightly difficult as there are baggage weight restraints. When flying the airline imposes certain restrictions on the amount of baggage you can check in and carry on board. Taking into account your destination and your priorities you need to pack your requirements judiciously.

Certain accessories that which are most commonplace and fundamental to air travel need a mention here. These options may come in handy for you whenever you take a flight to go somewhere.

1) Adaptor and a charger71hYCwpP+aL._SL1500_

Always carry a compact adaptor and a charger in which you can plug in multiple electronics. Ensure that it has different plug configurations so that it can be used in most of the countries of the world.

check the adaptor plug chart with voltage information for the country you are visiting. This will determine whether or not you need a converter or transformer to change the voltage for your appliance. An American appliance uses anywhere between 110-130 volts of alternating current whereas most of the countries in the world use 220-240 volts. Also most of the outlets in other countries require rounded pins, are recessed into the wall or have 3 angled input slots, etc. The power cords of the U.S. will not fit in most of these kinds of outlets.

2) Good carry onblog-luggage1

You need to pick out a really good carry on, an expandable on preferably. It should have the best in class wheels and a hinged padded organizer panel that protects a laptop and an Ipad in separate pockets. In addition  a RFID-protected shoulder bag would be ideal to carry your passport, currency, tablet, etc. Nowadays, RFID-protected bags include a special fabric technology that keeps illegal scanners from capturing the data on credit cards and passport. Added security features like slashproof straps lockable zippers and mesh liners protect you from pickpockets and other thieves.

3) Pillow91ytMAJqtQL._SL1500_

There is lumbar pillow, a  neck pillow, a table pillow, a body travel pillow, a tray table pillow and if you don’t need any of these then you always have the airplane pillow in the aircraft to help you out.

In flight the temperature at times becomes quite cold. For further comfort a suitable pair of socks is a must. Light slippers also are an aid to movement inside the aircraft.

7) Noise-Canceling Headphones  15506958965_4534c7481b_k

In a flight one always wants to relax and be comfortable. The constant drone of the aircraft engines and noisy children or a group of talkative people around you can be very irritating and it would be quite rude to ask them to keep silent. To preempt such a situation include noise cancelling headphones or earplugs in your carry on. They really will be of great help when you require them. By the way, don’t forget to include an eye mask. To completely disconnect you need to shut the lights out too!!

8) Laptop Stand

Your laptop should be fully loaded before you step into the flight. In the long hours that you would be flying you would want a little time to go through your work/business sheets or maybe check out on your travel plans or maybe want to watch a movie. If you have no company and a neighbor who doesn’t like to talk, your laptop would be the best companion.

9) Kindlei

Amazon’s first generation e-book reader, the Kindle is something that should not be missed out. The latest Kindle will easily fit into your bag. It’s less than 1cm thick and weighs just 170 g. It can take up to 1400 books and boasts of a battery life of 15 hours and runs nearly as many comics as it does novels. No way could that boredom envelop you here.

10) Cleansing wipes

Long hours in a flight leave us, at times, feeling groggy and dirty. The toilettes may not be as clean as we may have wished. So carry the pocket-sized cleansing wipes which are gentle enough to use on hands, body and face. They will give you a tingling fresh feeling and a brighter look. Also pack along with the wipes a hand sanitizer as you’ll want to clean your hands every now and then.
