I hate flying. Don’t get me wrong, I love to travel and explore new places and visit family and friends, but sitting in coach for 14 hours can only be described as a mild form of earthly hell. To ease the misery, I usually carry with me a clear pouch that sits conveniently in the seat pocket in front of me, containing a slew of amenities that make my trip more comfortable and entertaining. It occurred to me that curating such a care package would make the perfect gift for the jet-setting friend!

You can make your kit as low-cost or luxurious as your budget allows. Here are some ideas for its contents:

• sleep mask
• pack of tissues
• earplugs
• travel size toothpaste
• toothbrush
• warm socks
• hand lotion
• lip balm
• pen and notepad
• pill case
• comb
• hand sanitizing wipes
• candy
• gum
• scarf
• phone and earphones
• compact mirror
• compressed towels
• portable phone charger

Find yourself a clear pouch or bag that will fit everything. Ban.do makes some cute ones like this, or this. So does Truffle. Alternatively, there many cheaper options on Amazon.

Finally- Download and print out this free printable label to attach to your gift. Turn it into a gift tag or stick it to the front!
