- Stretch pants
- Soft top with long sleeves
- A light knit jacket or sweater — airplanes can get too cold — and this can double as a pillow
- Slip on shoes (for getting through security and quick off and on while in your seat)
- Warm socks — no one wants cold ankles (you might need or want support hose)
- A neck pillow — an inflatable one saves space
- Reading glasses
- Books, magazines
- Entertainment — loaded on portable devices is the best
- An empty water bottle to refill once you get past security
- A sleeping mask
- Ear plugs or noise cancelling headphones if you’re a high roller
- Healthy snacks — you can bring on fruit, granola bars, etc. of your own choosing
- A small kit with tissues, lotion, emery board, etc.
- Wear your passport, ID and cash in a pocket lanyard around your neck
