You'll Thank Yourself For Grabbing These Travel Essentials For Cheap At Target

If you pack this premium microfleece blanket and pillow in your bag, you'll be prepared for a warm and comfortable flight. The compact design allows you to bring both the pillow and blanket in your carry-on bags or attach them to your suitcase for convenience. The microfiber material is designed to have a soft, plush feel that provides comfort while retaining heat. The travel blanket comes in one 65-by-40-inch size and is available in a checkered red, gray, and black.

Reviewer Amandatwilight wrote, "Very tightly compacted and easy to travel with. The blanket is much bigger than I imagined, which is great. Really soft and doesn't shed. I compared prices at different locations, and this seemed to be the better deal. Super happy with this purchase."

Finding a comfortable resting position while sitting upright in a cramped airplane seat is no easy feat – the confined space wasn't designed for anyone to get a good night's rest. At least with Open Story's travel neck pillow you can protect your neck from defaulting to an uncomfortable position. The pillow has a classic U-shaped design with memory foam filling that contours to the shape of your neck, providing the support it needs. To clean, remove the jersey fabric cover and put it in the washing machine. The pillow is available in gray, pink, and muddy aqua.

Promising review: "Used on a long flight, super comfy and quite good quality for a lower price than other memory foam neck pillows. Love that it clips, materially is soft and non abrasive, and the removable case washes easily." – G

Finding the perfect travel bag to hold your snacks, books, chargers, water bottles, medications, and more makes long flights easier to manage. The lifestyle backpack is big enough to hold all your travel essentials, and designed to be small enough to fit under your seat. (Be sure to check your airline's specific baggage-size restrictions.) Equipped with a variety of zip pockets, both on the inside and outside, two bottle holders, and a laptop compartment, this bag keeps things organized. It's made of water-resistant material, allowing it to withstand unpredictable weather conditions, and features adjustable straps that provide extra comfort.

Staying hydrated during a long flight is crucial, especially since you'll be sitting for an extended period. If you don't want to rely on occasional visits from the flight attendant, consider getting an Owala FreeSip stainless-steel water bottle and filling it up after you pass through security. Not only does this insulated bottle keep your beverages cold for up to 24 hours, but its locking push-button lid design guarantees zero spills once closed. Available in an endless array of colors and three sizes, this water bottle is the perfect travel accessory.

Promising review: "This is my new favorite water bottle! I used to be a tried and true stanley girl but these are even better. They hold the perfect amount of water without being heavy. No spills, leaks , dents and it’s easy to hold. Love the sip or chug option in the cap!!" – Tenley

Sitting for extended periods on a flight slows blood circulation and often results in swollen feet and ankles, as well as stiff muscles. Walking down the aisles every couple of hours helps keep the blood flowing, which is a great idea, but adding compression socks to the equation can also provide relief. ZenToes Plantar Fasciitis compression socks use a 3D knitting technology designed to support the arch of the foot, with a 15-20 mmHg compression that increases circulation and decreases chances for inflammation and swelling. Created with nylon, spandex, and a moisture-wicking material, this sleeve boasts comfort and breathability. The open-toe design broadens your shoe options, giving your toes room to breathe.

Each packet of Ultima Replenisher's electrolyte mix contains magnesium, calcium, potassium, chloride, sodium, and phosphorus, along with vitamin C and zinc, to help revitalize the body, keeping it fully alert and hydrated – even in the ultra-dry plane environment. The tropical variety pack comes with eight stick packages in flavors blue raspberry, pink lemonade, watermelon, and passionfruit.

If you're looking for a place to store your wet wipes, anti-nausea medication, masks, and earplugs, the travel pouch system is a stylish way to make that possible. These canvas bags fit comfortably in your carry-on, making them easily accessible during your flight. The set includes two pouches in small and large sizes, and comes in seven colors and prints. 94% of Target shoppers rave about this product, giving it a 5-star rating.

Promising review: "Perfect little pouch to keep the items in my tote bag organized. The smaller pouch is sizable enough to hold all my pens, petty cash, lip glosses AND emergency snacks. The larger pouch holds my wallet and a pack of baby wipes (mom life, ya know?). Lightweight so they don't add extra bulk to my already full tote bag." – Amy

Nothing feels more inconvenient than hearing the airline rep say your bag is overweight. The last thing you want to do is spend precious time shifting items from one bag to another to meet the weight requirement. With Fosmon's portable digital luggage scale, you can avoid overweight suitcases before you leave the house. The battery-operated device uses multiple measurement units and has a 110-pound weight capacity. The high-contrast digital screen is meant to be easy to read, and it's designed with a strap, making it easy to attach to your bag.

Between noise distractions and unpredictable lighting, the conditions on an airplane can make it an uncomfortable place to fall asleep. An eye mask can block out light, making it easier to nap in the middle of the sky, and this deeply cushioned one from Target is a $9 bestseller that you should definitely add to your cart.
