Get ready to revolutionize the way you travel.\u00a0 Really, how have you lived your whole life without these?<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

*Inflatable Loungers<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"
I have seen ads for these far a while now, usually with skinny gorgeous bikini models lounging on the beach.\u00a0 That seems great, but my first thought was this;<\/p>\n

\"Airport<\/a><\/p>\n

“if I owned this product, I would never have to sleep on a cold filthy airport bench again!”\u00a0 So whether your a sun-kissed beach goddess like the advertisements, or a dirty airport hobo like me, this product could change your life.
<\/a>\"\"
There’s even a car version if you are more inclined to road trips!<\/p>\n

*GPS Trackable Luggage<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

The Bluesmart Suitcase is the best thing I’ve ever seen.\u00a0 This luggage charges your devices, weighs itself (using the handle as a scale!), and GPS\/Bluetooth technology that allows you to track your luggage and lock or unlock it anywhere from your smart phone!\u00a0 People, the future is now!\u00a0 Unfortunately, the carry on size is going for over $300, which is a pretty penny.
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

If the Bluesmart Luggage is too rich for your blood, you can check out a smaller device like the Lugloc.\u00a0 Lugloc retails around $50.\u00a0 Just link it with an app on your smart phone, place it in your checked luggage, and be able to track it anywhere in the world.\u00a0 I can’t tell you how often this would have come in handy.\u00a0 Mostly recently when a certain American carrier lost my bag for 9 full days in London, Los Angeles, Chicago, Abu Dhabi, or Johannesburg (which was quite an adventure!).<\/p>\n

*Pocket Sized Hand Crank Generator<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"
This nifty product is great for camping and power outages, but perhaps most useful when you don’t want to battle airport strangers for the coveted one outlet in the corner.\u00a0 You know the one where you get to sit on the floor and lean against the garbage can?\u00a0 Instead, what if you could make your own power with a crank of the wrist like some kind of magician?\u00a0 Pretty sweet right?\u00a0 The K-TOR Pocket Socket Hand Crank Generator Portable Power Supply, fits in your pocket and runs about $60.<\/p>\n

<\/strong>*A Handbag with a Secret (shhh…the secret is wine)<\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

This is not a great idea on a plane, but it’s a wonderful idea anywhere else in life!\u00a0 This innocent looking handbag has a secret wine (or any other liquid \ud83d\ude09 ) bladder and discrete pour spout.\u00a0 Toss a couple of these squishy rubber wine glasses in there and you’re a walking party!
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

*A Drink Holder for your Luggage<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

Turn your suitcase into a personal assistant!\u00a0 This is perfect for the traveler that can’t managed to juggle travel papers, luggage, and the coffee necessary make your brain remember gate numbers without losing your passport forever and having to stay an extra day in Australia on your high school field trip because you’re a security risk and then your science teacher literally rips her hair out on the flight home and never chaperones another international trip.\u00a0 We all know that kind of traveler right?<\/p>\n

*Passport Cover turned Power Bank<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

I’m all about the multi-tasking!\u00a0 This cute passport cover comes in several fun colors and inspirational travel phrases, has an RFID blocker, and a hidden power bank to charge up your devices!\u00a0 There’s even a neat little pocket to store your phone while it’s charging.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/strong>*Travel Sized Water Heater<\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

This handy do-dad is the perfect accessory for the first world traveler.\u00a0 Just stick this heater in a cup of water and you’re ready for tea anywhere!\u00a0 Pair it with a few packets of Starbucks Via and you’re unstoppable!<\/p>\n

At only $9 this will end up saving you quite a bit on your morning joe!<\/p>\n

*A Better Neck Pillow<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

The usual U-shaped neck pillows are the worst! There, I said it!\u00a0 Instead of a pillow behind your neck forcing your head at a weird angle, try this gentle over the shoulder number.\u00a0 It’s way more comfortable and you’re less likely to have a weird double chin in case strangers take pictures of you sleeping.<\/p>\n

<\/strong>*Inverted Umbrella<\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

Much like the spinner suitcase, this invention begs the question, “what took so long?”\u00a0 We as a society have been doing things the hard way for so long!\u00a0 This umbrella is easier to open through a cracked door and the wet part stays on the inside!\u00a0 It’s a great time to be alive.\u00a0 Plus this guy folds down super small for easy packing!<\/p>\n

\"An<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/strong>*Airplane Seat Cover<\/strong><\/span>
<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

So there are approximately 7000 seats on any given airplane, and the time between unloading the passengers before you and loading you up is about 30 seconds.\u00a0 If you do the math, that’s .0042 seconds of cleaning per seat.\u00a0 That’s just a scientific fact.\u00a0 How clean do you think those seats really are?\u00a0 Have you seen the people at airports?\u00a0 They’re monsters.\u00a0 Do you want to share ass space with that?\u00a0 This may take up a little room in your carry on, but it’s totally worth it (and comes in several cute designs)!<\/p>\n

If you’d like to try out any of these ingenious inventions, you can check them out at the links below.\u00a0 I’ll get a little kick back and it won’t cost you anything extra (and as an added bonus, I’ll love you forever!)<\/p>\n
