It can be very difficult to travel by air. Even if you are traveling alone, packing your toiletries properly, adhering to luggage weight and size limitations, and organizing all identification to reach your seat comfortably takes a lot of planning and energy – especially if your not prepared.
These essential tips will help you get the most out of your flight, no matter how long or short it is.
Travel Safely
Your passport, handbag, wallet or other luggage items are the most damaging things about a vacation. Tourists are often the targets of thieves. There are many simple ways to protect your belongings.
Secure Your Luggage
Opportunists are the best kind of thieves. TSA-approved locks and zippers that are puncture-proof will make their job easier. Do not travel with jewelry or other valuable items in your luggage.
Protect Passports and Valuables
Thieves don’t have to take your wallet in order to steal your personal data. The thieves can scan the chip in a passport, credit card, or bankcard and retrieve the information from a remote location. You can still protect your information with specially designed passport or credit card sleeves that block RFID signals. There are also handbags and wallets that completely block RFID signals, or have marked pockets. Are you unsure where to begin with travel safety? Our Travel Security Starter Kit contains all the safety necessities you need in one place!
Comforts in-flight
Proper planning is key to a successful trip. We wish you could have everything done before you leave. But that is not always possible. Sometimes it comes down to the wire. These tips will help you make the most of your in-flight relaxation.
Keep it Fresh
You can bring mints, mists and anti-bacterial wipes. Your skin can be stripped of its moisture by planes, and they can also spread germs. To stay hydrated, you can use our Herban Essentials and our Minimergency Kit.
Get a rest
Comfortable seating will make any flight more enjoyable, regardless of how long it takes. Make sure you have a blanket, pillow or eye-shades ready for when you fly. Our Nap Sac Blanket and Pillow can be used as an all-in one solution to any comfort needs in flight. It zips back into an easy-to-store compact design, making it ideal for carrying in your carry-on bag.
Plan for Toiletries
TSA guidelines state that liquids, gels, and aerosols must be kept in containers of three-ounces or less and packed in a zip-top bag of one-quart size. To prevent spills, it is important to keep shampoo, lotion, hair cream, toothpaste, mouthwash, and any other liquids in sealed bottles. The Nalgene Collection is perfect for everything and anything you need.
