I know most people can survive long flights with a small purse and their phone, but hey, I'm needy. I honestly have no idea how people do it.. But if you're one of those people, kudos to you! I always bring a medium sized shoulder bag that can fit all of my necessities. I like this striped one because I usually dress a little more laid back with some leggings and a cardigan so they go together. My must have item over all is my laptop. I have a mac air so it doesn't take up much room and isn't a struggle to lug around. I use it on the plane and during long layovers for literally everything! It's also very convenient to charge my phone on the plane or when I'm on the go. I also carry chargers for all of my devices, as well as my headphones. If I couldn't listen to music on the plane (especially a 12 hour flight) I would suffer, a lot. It's a MUST have.
After going several flights putting my makeup in my suitcase by mistake, I always make sure it's with me. I know some people say that you don't need makeup during travel, but I still like to look decent. I don't wear a whole lot of makeup when I travel, but sometimes I might have a nasty blemish that needs touching up during the day. That's why I always bring my makeup bag with me to touch up. Looking good is feeling good, right?! I don't usually brush my hair often, but on long trips I find that I regret in when I don't bring a comb. I actually don't use brushes because it kills my hair. It doesn't take up any room and is great for touching up after a long flight. I also bring a small hand lotion and lip balm because my skin gets real dry on planes, but I think that's normal.
Finally, I have all my necessities for travel: my passports and wallet with my ID and so on.. I really love having a bigger bag because everything fits! It's not oversized, but it'll hold everything that I need, even my purse. I just feel it a drag to carry around multiple bags, it's a hassle. I'm excited to go to the US but the travel is going to be loooooong. I hope I'll have enough time and interesting things to share!
What do you bring on long flights? Have you been to Alaska? And is there anything I'm forgetting?!
I much prefer a bigger bag when travelling too! Hope this all keeps you entertained, safe flight :) xx

DeleteHave an amazing time in Alaska! I hear its absolutely gorgeous up there! I agree, I need more than just a purse on a long flight otherwise I go crazy! I definitely have to touch up my makeup after a long flight too. Especially if you're going right out to explore!
