1. Let's start with a Travel Duffel Bag (Amazon). This carry-on bag / overnighter comes in a couple of different colors. There are several pockets and it is lined inside in plastic, protecting your items from inclement weather.

2. You might already have this item at home, especially if you're an iPhone user. Toss an Apple Air Tag into your luggage, because Murphy's Law. It tracks and reports via the FindMe App on iPhones.

3. When flying I have an airport uniform. It consists of the Prinbara Casual Long Dress (Amazon). It's long, sleeveless, and I can add layers (or subtract them) according to the weather. It holds up great and is very, very comfortable. There are ton of colors and patterns available.

4. My go-to footwear are the Time and Tru Scrunchback Sneakers. They've been to Disney, the Caribbean, and Asia. They are slip-on, super comfy, and I've been buying them for years. They don't take up a lot of room in luggage, too.

5. Does your head fall forward when I napping on planes like me? This Bcozzy Neck Pillow provides just enough support to avoid that (Amazon). When not in use it comes with a protective bag to stow it away. There are a couple of different sizes (even some for kids) and colors.

6. Going overseas? How about a personalized Passport Holder? Even though passports are little more durable that they were in the past, it's always a good idea to get something to protect them. This Personalized Passport Holder lets you customize your passport with a monogram, quote, or picture.

7. I have this item on some of the other lists, but it's so helpful to have, even when you're just on a day trip. The INIU Portable Charger will reduce the amount of time you're waiting around for your phone or other electronic device to charge (Amazon). A must-have.

8. For stumbles, scratches, or even blisters the Thrive Mini First Aid Kit will help with its inventory of adhesive bandages, gels, alcohol pads, and more (Amazon). You might not need it, but if you want to be prepared for anything it's a good idea, especially when traveling with kids.

9. Make sure you order the international Power Travel Plug Adaptor (Amazon) before your trip abroad. If you're traveling with others consider ordering a couple, one for items used in the bathroom, like a hair straightener, and one by your nightstand for charging electronics.

10. Lastly is the DJI Osmo Phone Gimbal for iPhone and Android phones. It's kind of like a gateway into producing videos that are smoother and more professional looking without spending a ton. If you're looking for something to help out with creating videos or content for a vacation YouTube this will help immensely.
