Travel Must-haves

If you follow me on social media, you know we travel monthly, whether in or out of the country. Specific lessons I learned early on while traveling have stuck with me for years. Check out my list of travel must-haves.

• Blanket (airports and planes can be chilly)
• Charger (nothing worse than having a dead phone or overpaying for an airport charger)
• Water bottle (bring an empty bottle through TSA and fill it up at any filtered water stations)
• Movies downloaded (pass the time on the planes and at the gate with your favorites on Netflix)
• Books, blank paper, crayons, puzzles (limit screentime with a good word search or coloring book for the little ones)
• Shoes (comfortable shoes are a must in the event you have to make a mad dash to your next gate)
• Hair tie (if you’re sitting on the plane for a long time, you may need to pull your hair up to stay cool)
• Snacks (don’t overpay for your favorite snack when you can pack it before your trip)
