A TSA-approved lock can be opened by airport security using a universal master key. Agents can inspect your bag without cutting the lock off. That makes it the best choice for checked luggage on U.S. flights. The TSA Approved Fingerprint Lock opens with your fingerprint, so there’s no combination to remember.

Yes, with a Bluetooth adapter. Most in-flight entertainment systems only have a headphone jack, so wireless earbuds can’t connect directly. A Bluetooth headphone adapter plugs into the jack and streams audio to your earbuds or headphones. The Bluetooth Headphone Adapter is a small, easy-to-pack fix.

The easiest way to avoid overweight bag fees is to weigh your luggage before you leave home and before you head to the airport on the way back. A portable luggage scale makes that quick. The Locking Travel Strap Luggage Scale combines a scale with a locking strap, so it secures your bag too. Check your airline’s weight limit before packing.

The best travel pillow supports your head and neck so it doesn’t drop forward or to the side while you sleep sitting up. The Neck Aligning Comfort Travel Pillow is designed to hold your neck in a more natural position on long flights and road trips. Pair it with a Washable Travel Seat Cover for a cleaner, more comfortable seat.

For a two- to three-night trip, a weekender or duffel bag usually holds enough clothes, shoes, and toiletries without checking a suitcase. Look for one with a shoulder strap and separate compartments. The Leather Weekender Bag with Detachable Shoulder Strap and Brouk & Co Harrison Weekender Bag are popular picks. Check your airline’s carry-on size limits before you fly.
