I Never Sleep on Flights, but These 14 Products Actually Help Me Drift Off-From Just $13

"I may be a champion sleeper at home (a nap hates to see me coming), but put me on a plane, and I'm suddenly booted to last place. Between the persistent fear of lost luggage, the buzzing excitement for what awaits at my destination, and just the inability to get comfortable in those claustrophobic airplane seats, there are a lot of factors that play against me when it comes to sleeping peacefully mid-flight."

"After spending too many redeye flights wide awake and struggling to stay energized even in the most breathtaking locations, I've finally gotten my act together and compiled a list of must-have travel essentials that make mid-flight snoozes a breeze. Now I never travel without my Blissy Sleep Mask to mimic a dark bedroom (even at 42,000 feet in the air), or an Ostrichpillow Neck Pillow for comfortable stabilization of my neck."

"This eye mask completely blocks out light, eliminating distraction from my neighbors' reading light or blinding window glare. It even comes with a matching travel pouch, making it easy to toss in my personal item without risking exposure to germs. Not to mention the silk fabric makes me feel very luxurious, even at the back of the cabin, ensuring peak relaxation."
