Five must-have travel accessories, to make your trip a breeeze
Ever been on a trip and been frustrated by the long hours at the airport, high costs of drinks, horrible time spent trying to fit everything in the case? Well not anymore. Read on to find out our five favourite accessories that make your life a breeze when travelling.
1. Packing Cubes (£14)
These things are lifesavers. They’re like mini cases for your suitcase. You pop your individual sets of clothes, toiletries, technology into these cubes, which organises your case and allows you fit way more in than you’d think. Check them out here. They’re not expensive either, only around £14 for a set.
2. Reusable Travel Bottles (£9)
Functional and stylish, that’s what we like. Reusable travel bottles are great for two reasons. One, they save you space (and weight!) in your luggage - no more packing big full bottles of your conditioner, shampoo, soap, body wash, moisturiser and all the rest. It does add up. You buy these bottles, fill them up before you go, which should give you just enough for the duration of your trip. Secondly, you save the planet whilst doing so. No more single use plastics that you throw away when you’re done. You can also get pretty colours, which we think is the best reason to get them. Check them out here. At just £9 at the time of writing, it’s a great deal for the set.
3. Worldwide Travel Adapter (£15)
A worldwide travel adapter is an accessory that you don’t think you need, but do. We’re guilty of it ourselves. We have a drawer of many different adapters for different parts of the world, and it becomes a nightmare. Get yourself one of these and one will do the trick. Recycle the others because you’re never going to need them again. Get one for £15 here.
4. Reusable Water Bottle (£40)
A reusable water bottle speaks for itself. Good for the environment, and saves you buying bottles of water when out and about. Seeing a theme here? All about saving you time and money, whilst saving the planet. Good right? You can get them in multiple colours, check them out for £40 here.
5. Apple AirTag (£94)
Ok so we know these one’s can be quite expensive. Fortunately, none of us here have ever had our luggage lost or stolen, but we know people who have. An AirTag would have been a godsend. Obviously this is one for the Apple side of the fight, but a GPS tracker on or in your luggage is a must have. Imagine landing for your holiday, and your luggage is missing. No clean underwear, clothes for a meal, no swimsuit. It’s a perfect way to ruin your holiday. Get an AirTag here now, and you’ll thank us later. £94 for a set of 4. Not bad.
