Travel Accessories

Travel accessories have been designed by many companies to make our trips anywhere more comfortable and enjoyable. For comfort, there are wonderful travel pillows and blankets. The pillows are available in foam or with micro beading. There are also inflatable models that will take up little or no room in your lightweight luggage. The inflatable models come in assorted styles with all types of different outside covering. The blankets designed for travel are small, taking up little room but will afford you much comfort on the trip. Inflatable back pillows will also give those with bad backs more comfort. And you never know when those airline blankets were cleaned last! For children, there are blankets in their own soft backpack case, which can also be used as a pillow! Bothered by crossing different time zones and suffering from jet lag? A product called No Jet-Lag is homeopathic and will cure that problem. For nausea, there are wristbands that target pressure points in your wrist. Eyeshades will block out light and let you sleep peacefully on the plane or train. Noise canceling headphones block out background noises so you can focus on listening to music. Travelsox will help stimulate blood flow and reduce swelling on flights.

Can't fit everything in your discount luggage? Easy-go space saver sets will let you pack more in less space. These ingenious compression bags remove air that creates bulk just by squeezing and rolling. No vacuum cleaner required! Is the thought of security going through personal items bothering you? Don't like the thought of putting your clean clothing in not so clean hotel drawers? Packing cubes will solve that problem. Mosaic has cubes in different sizes that will hold your underwear, socks, vitamins, etc. They also have plastic lined cases for creams and lotions. Shoes will not dirty your clothing with their practical shoe covers. These are fleece lined inside to protect your shoes and nylon on the outside to protect your clothes. Useful and elegant leather toiletry kits are available from Dilana. These are lightweight leather cases that will keep your spillables in one convenient place. Shedrain makes new lightweight umbrellas. These are ultra-slim, open to a 42" arc with push-button operation and have aluminum and fiberglass ribs. There are also small ponchos and foldable raincoats to protect you in rainy weather.

You've purchased lightweight luggage, but are still worried about being charged for overweight baggage? There's a portable luggage scale with a tape measure to check your weight in advance. The scale weighs items up to 75 lbs. and is simple to use. The dial stops and locks for easy reading. Onesole makes women's shoes with interchangeable tops so you can pack one pair of shoes with choices of hundred’s of different coverings. UBU makes travel jackets that are reversible for women. These are lightweight and never wrinkle. Bright colored tags will help you to identify your luggage at crowded terminals and on the airport carousels. The new TSA locks are also available in bright colors. These are the only locks you can use at airports, because TSA security personnel can open the luggage with a special key that does not destroy the locks. Luggage straps are also available with this special TSA security lock. Handle wraps in bright colors will also go around your baggage handles and make identification quick and easy.

Frequent travelers need accessories to make their trip more comfortable. Dilana makes travel wallets that will hold all of your travel information in one convenient place. There's also a round the neck leather holder for your passport, boarding pass and license. No need to look for the information, it's always handy! For areas where pick pocketing is a concern, Easy-go makes many different types of under the clothing money holder’s for your extra money and passport. Pacsafe makes anti-theft handbags and fanny bags. These are slash proof and snatch-proof. Steripen makes a lightweight water purification system. This eliminates viruses, bacteria and protozoa in a liter of water in ninety seconds. Zip-it security vests are all-season and carry your ID, passport, tickets, credit cards and cash. Jewelry can be carried in leather cases that look like travel wallets. Leeman makes one with pockets for earrings, rings, and a special anti-tarnish pocket for silver jewelry. Don't speak the language? Lingo Voyager II is a 12-language translator that speaks more than 240,000 words and translates for you. Travel accessories make ideal corporate gifts and can be silk-screened or monogrammed with company names or logos. There's something for everyone to make your travel experience a wonderful one!
