If you’re a bookworm but don’t want to be weighed down with numerous paperbacks on your next long-haul flight, a Kindle is for you. This slim e-reader offers a paper-like display, just like the real thing. With up to 16GB of storage (read: it holds thousands of books) and up to a six-week charge life, Kindles are ideal for travel and will offer a great distraction if the in-flight movies aren’t up to much. Here's a list of Kindle readers you can choose from.

Drown out the noise of your fellow passengers and listen to your favorite music, podcasts, or meditations in peace with these Noise Canceling Headphones. Ideal for traveling on planes, trains, and… buses, these noise-canceling headphones will bring an element of calm to any journey. If you don’t need another pair of headphones, try these noise-canceling earplugs instead.

Get one step ahead of the dreaded jet lag with this sumptuous sleep mask. This multi-award-winning mask is loved by jet-setting celebrities and beauty editors all over the world for its sleep-enhancing properties. Crafted with care from pure mulberry silk and guaranteed to block out 100% of the light, this luxury, padded eye mask will help lull you into a deep sleep, no matter where you lay your head.

These cleansing wipes are a must-have on long-haul flights to keep you feeling fresh. Use to remove make-up after you take off, or to freshen up just before you land. Pop in your bag alongside this mini toiletries kit.

After a few hours of recycled air at 35,000 feet, both you and your skin will need a little refresh. This pocket-sized face mist from NEOM will provide a welcome burst of moisture for thirsty skin, and the spa-like scent will bring an aura of calm to your surroundings.

As mentioned, long-haul flights can dry out your skin, but you can be prepared. This soothing mask cools and plumps the skin, replenishing moisture lost to the plane’s drying environment. Dr. Jart’s iconic rubber masks stay on the skin for 35-40 minutes, ensuring that the ingredients penetrate deeper into your skin - ideal when you have time to pass on a long-haul flight!

Keep all your devices on a full charge for the whole flight with this slim power bank. With USB, USB Type C, and Lightning connectors, plus a massive 20,000mAh cell capacity (5 full iPhone XS charges) this power bank is an essential accessory for any traveler. Plus, it’s handy to have if you’ve arrived at your destination with the wrong adaptor.

Sanitise every part of your seat and tray table before the plane takes off, and stay germ-free for the duration of the flight with this sanitising spray. Quick drying, hydrating, and soothing, it won’t dry out your hands like most gel sanitizers, and its light scent will combat any unwelcome odors during the flight.

Are they cool? No. Are they necessary? Yes. Flight socks are a must-have for long-haul flights, as they help aid blood circulation and can help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Layer up with a pair of cashmere socks to stay warm throughout the flight.

Safe travels!
