Packing is hard. We get it. There are so many things to keep track of — what are you going to wear? What do you have space to pack? How many pairs of shoes should you bring? What should you bring on the plane?

Orlando International Airport
Well, we travel a LOT. Probably more than the average family — especially if Disney is involved. And over time, we’ve found a few travel essentials that are ESSENTIAL to pack in your carry-on bag. These items have SAVED us on long flights, quick trips, and everything in between. Here’s what you need before your next trip!
Anker 621 Magnetic Portable Charger
This portable charger is tiny but mighty! We’re BIG fans of Anker’s line of portable chargers, and this one is great because it magnetically attaches right to your phone for a CORDLESS experience. When you’re dealing with a million other things at the airport, the last thing you need is another cord. This snaps right on the back of your phone and charges your device seamlessly. 10/10, highly recommend to anyone with an Apple MagSafe phone.
Owala FreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle
We know what you’re thinking: NO LIQUIDS AT THE AIRPORT! But as soon as you pass through security, you’re free to load up on liquids! We recommend packing an insulated water bottle like this so that you can easily fill it up before your flight and AVOID paying for overpriced water in the airport. The Owala water bottle has a patented FreeSip spout designed so you can sip upright through the built-in straw or tilt it back to swig from the spout opening. So handy!
Cozy Shawl Wrap
We love a product that can serve multiple purposes. This shawl wrap is SUPER handy to bring to the airport — you can use it as a shawl, a blanket, a makeshift pillow, or even a poncho!
In the meantime, we’re always on the lookout for the latest travel essentials, so stay tuned for more.




Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
