Travel Essentials for Teens

It’s the Summer! Which means you may be travelling. And I have the Ultimate Guide of Travel Essentials that every teenager must have. These Handy Travel Essentials will definitely ensure you travel well.

Essentials - These are the main things you need for basic travel.

• Wallet (Cash/Credit Cards)

• Passport

• Boarding Pass

• Mobile Phone

• Good quality Pen (Notice the word ‘Good quality’, since you wouldn’t want your pen to break/stop working when you most need it)

Comfort - These ensure you have a relaxing journey.

• Socks (it’s best to be wearing them pre-flight instead of tossing them into your carry-on)

• Neck Pillow

• Eye Mask (some flights offer them)

• Sunglasses (you never know when you might need them)

• Hoodie (I always have a hoodie around my waist, because I get super cold in flights and a nice thick hoodie can always keep you warm)

Health - The necessities to make sure you are fit and healthy

• Pain Relievers (such as Panadol or Aspirin)

• Hand Sanitizer

• Band-Aids

Entertainment - The fundamental things needed to allow you to enjoy your travel

• Headphones (I prefer these for when I need to watch/listen for long periods of time)

• Earphones (I prefer these when I just need them to listen to music or just need them for a short time)

• iPad or Tablet

• Books (I always need at least one book for the flight, and I would recommend only one as you wouldn’t want to overweigh your carry-on.)

• Notebook and Pen (just to doodle to pass time)

• Portable Charger (you never know when your phone is about to go dead, especially with unpredictable iPhones)

• Laptop (+ Charger)

Beauty - To refresh yourself in a flight

• Lip Balm (I don’t know about you guys, but I feel that your lips can get really chapped in a flight)

• Deodorant (to keep those armpits from getting too ripe)

• Hair Ties (If you’re like me and can’t keep track of a hair tie, your definitely gonna need more than 5)

• Small Brush/Tangle Teezer (I prefer carrying a tangle teezer, since it’s small and it get’s rid of knots wonderfully)

• Hand/Face Wipes (Good for getting rid of germs and is nice and cool to put on your face to get rid of that after-flight-zombie look)

Sustenance

• Gum/Toffee (My ears get really blocked during take-off and landing so it’s great to have something to chew/suck on during that time, since it really helps with the ear blockage)

• Snacks (just a pack of Oreos or a piece of fruit can really be useful when you just need a small-something to fill you up)

Miscellaneous

• Camera (it’s always nice to have something to record the memories while travelling, so that you always have something to look back to. A really popular choice would be an Instax Mini Camera.)
