#1 Essentials Beauty bag
Everywhere I go, I have one small makeup bag to carry the utmost essentials for whenever I need them and that includes on an airplane! Usually, in my carry on I carry one lip balm, one mini hairbrush, eye patch masks, one sleeping mask, face wipes, Dior’s iconic duo set and one compact mirror and one mini perfume. These holy grail essentials keep me refreshed and revitalised for a long trip.

#2 A comfy neck pillow or blanket
A long haul flight just isn’t the same without a comfy neck pillow and blanket, they are a must if you want to have a quick nap to let the time go by. Sleeping on an airplane isn’t the easiest place to sleep, however with these, you won’t even notice, I guarantee you’ll be super comfy.
#3 Mints, sweets or gum
If you hate the feeling of your ears constantly ringing or popping whilst in the air, it might be a good idea to bring sweets, mints or even some gum as this helps to ease the effects of the air pressure when on a plane.
#4 Entertainment / A Good Read
Some entertainment whilst travelling on a long haul flight is a must! whether its brining your phone, Ipad or laptop to watch a nostalgic movie marathon or a nice long book, to keep you occupied. Here are some of my favourite short reads for some ideas;
#5 Comfy shoes / Slippers
I might be the only one who loves to take off shoes on a flight or at least be wearing thin and comfy shoes, its a must for a long-haul flight as you don’t want your feet to become achy and restless.
#6 Headphones
To those music lovers who just can’t survive a flight without a good pair of headphones to keep them company an entertained throughout a flight, this is for you! rest back your head and immerse yourself into your favourite album, song or artist to make the time go by faster!
#7 Notebook & Pen
Having a notebook and pen is so important during an especially long flight as this is the time when you have the most random and unsolicited thoughts, you just have to get down. Or if you’re one to doodle and sketch it might be a good idea to bring a sketch pad and some coloured pens!
