What to take on a long haul flight?

If we HAVE to sit in economy then we take our own pillow and a couple of the hemorrhoid dounut cushions to sit on

For anyone looking for a pilllow to use on flights, I THOROUGHLY recommend getting hold of a JW Marriott Accent pillow filled with Goose Down and feathers. Size wise the pillows are perfect for flying being 61cm X 25cm.

Needless to say I would never suggest pinching one from a JW :whistle: so will provide a link to purchase.

If I could choose only one thing to take with me, a good set of noise cancelling headphones would be top of my list, even the wife only managed a close second :cool:

It's an old thread, but in my ongoing battle to survive Eco/Comfort Eco, I have revised my armoury and swapped my flat pack tablet table stand for a Sat Nav mount sucker thingy that I mount on the screen and use with my Ipod Touch and Galaxy S WiFi 5.0. .... I am not sure there would be enough suction for the likes of an Ipad though.

That's a brilliant idea...off to research appropriate sizings on sat nav mount sucker thingies.

Tojo those earphones dont look very MSE.

I have Lindy noise cancelling earphones £40, they are brilliant and would be my number one thing to take on a long haul flight

I download programmes to my ipad. Watch a minute of them in the UK then pause them (otherwise the iplayer gets all uppity that you are outside the UK!) and watch them on flights.

that's an interesting work-around...so you do this with a variety of programmes - watch a bit, pause, etc? I haven't tried watching more than one programme at a time on iplayer so not familiar with exactly how that would work but is very interesting.
