To cover hotel pillows, or to stuff with your sweatshirt for a swanky impromptu pillow in train, plane or auto.

It looks like your basic hoodie, yet, it’s built specifically for travel comfort with features including a removable inflatable neck pillow, stash pocket with ear plugs, zippered internal passport/ticket pocket and a light shield built into the hood. Genius.

Love these new wipes for freshening on the go. They’re biodegradable and scented with essential oils—half are spicy-orangey bergamot (meant for hands and body) and the other half are fresh yuzu citrus (meant for face and neck). Perfect post-flight.

BONUS: Flight 001’s having a supersale to celebrate its 10th birthday through this Sunday, April 19th—30 percent off all purchases over $50. (Use the promo code “birthday” online.) Of course, you’d have to buy two of these to get the discount, which effectively knocks them each down under $20. One for you, one for your traveling friend.

The new pima cotton (and therefore more affordable) version of White+Warren’s cashmere travel wrap. A nice, big all-weather scarf, blanket and wrap in one, it comes in a rainbow of colors.

Slippers that can be worn outside—great for plane rides, lobby dashes and shuffling around the campsite. In my experience, Keen does footwear right.

Snuggie Mania is sweeping the nation. As reported in a USA Today article, over four million people own what’s basically a fleece robe you wear backwards. Then there are the talk show references, the YouTube sendups, the hundreds of Facebook groups and even Snuggie pub crawls. Which begs the question: Why? According to the infomercial that made it famous, the Snuggie’s allure lies in its ability to keep you totally warm while allowing you the use of your hands, but my money’s on the “affordable kitsch” factor—two Snuggies and two book lights for twenty bucks? Hell, yeah. I hope to see people rockin’ these on airplanes, rather than solely using them at home, say, next to The Clapper and the Ch-ch-ch-chia Pet.

Lately, I’ve gotten inquiries about travel sound-therapy systems and so ferreted out this gadget. It caught my eye because it’s small, doubles as a travel alarm, and has 18 lovely sounds to choose from, including thunderstorm, hidden cove, northwoods, night train, and one designed to combat jet lag (listen here). Comes with a travel pouch, too.

Plugs into a car or regular outlet to make wet snowboard or ski boots warm and dry for the next day’s runs.

New to the market: Passive noise-canceling in-ear headphones at a price so low, the recipient will think you splurged. Eartips made of self-conforming foam help promote a rockin’ bass, too.

Provides a scoop or a V-neck, depending on which side faces forward. A key layering piece that comes in a dozen colors.
