Play It Safe With A Portable Door Lock
Review: "This product is a complete game changer for me when I travel alone on my business trips. I’m a young female that travels for work, so having this door lock makes me feel safe and helps me sleep soundly through the night when I’m in hotels. I think everyone who travels should have one of these, just in case!" - Dev_Carrs
I had to stay in hotels that had no keys in some cheap places . I used to stuck a chair plus un umbrella. It worked. I used to shout back also or scream also. Always scream when you feel danger. Because even big men get scared. My experience. Take care! This gadget looks great. I will probably get it but certainly not on A. I don't like their ways. You can find it elsewhere, and BP is making a commercial there. Bad bad Panda! :))
1. You can't always choose hotel or area, especially if you travel for work or on a budget. 2. It may help people to feel safer when they sleep in Hotels as many people just don't like knowing that someone else has keys to the place you sleep

Review: "I will never travel without this! Handsfree beverage container plus phone and glasses holder. Keeps you organized and everything at your fingertips. Easy to install. Convenient carrying pouch... Folds flat for easy transport." - Amazon Customer
You need to check with the airlines, because a lot of airlines don't allow this because it requires attaching to part of frame of the airplane. I looked into this product when I was planning an overseas trip last year.
Until you get that guy in the row behind who thinks he is in charge of your window
Forget the guy behind you, on some airlines the flight attendants think they have the right to control your window! When I flew London to Bangkok and back with EVA Air they insisted I had the blind down "so people could sleep", despite it not being night in London or Bangkok. They literally leant over me to slam it down!
Load More Replies...Very creative! Would only be useful if you happen to get the window seat though...
And not that window seat where the windows dont line up with the seat rows and you get half a window.

Review: "I pack this case with my backpack for work and travel. It has been great for storing any charging cables that I need as well as a battery pack for charging on the go. All the cables fit in pretty well and haven't had any issues yet." - johnny_b_good
Just how many charging cables are people traveling with that they need a whole separate bag for it? Laptop charging and USB C or Lightning? Maybe micro-USB.
I am in IT. I have travelled with two laptops, a portable monitor, a tablet and a phone.

Review: "I bought this to keep my phone safe because I was going on vacation. I used it in the pool, on the beach, and when I just wanted to be hands-free. It worked great! Very easy to use, kept my phone dry, and had no issues with the touchscreen sensitivity. No issues at all." - Busymom
This Handy Travel Pill Organizer Will Save You Many Travel Headaches
Review: "These are so cute and came with labels. I have one at my desk, one in my bag and one for my boyfriend." - Gabriella B
No, no, no. Why take out every single pill out of their individual, original packaging?
If you travel internationally you should ALWAYS keep your pills in their original packaging, including package insert, to avoid any complications. It's even better to have a written medication plan (especially when traveling with Methylphenidate (ADHD medication) or narcotics) with you, signed off by a physician.
Load More Replies...When you travel make sure you take your prescriptions in the bottles they came in! Otherwise you can get them taken away from you for not having the prescription with you. You can even get criminal charges if you have any narcotics.
I have my AM pills in a container with AM on the lid. I have my PM pills in a container with PM on the lid. I've traveled tons that way, no actual prescription labels and it's never been a problem. And I've traveled a bunch internationally.
You've been lucky. My brother had pills confiscated by customs because he didn't have them in the original bottle.

Review: "This stuff is amazing. I have thick thighs and they always rub together and get so raw with the hot heat and humidity. I used this stuff when I went to Mexico and it saved my entire trip. I had no rashes and I was able to walk for hours without having to reapply. I used it for running when I got home under my armpits and thighs and it helped with all the body rubbing. I will buy this again when I run out." - kalissa syverson
Does this actually work? It sounds like there'd either still be friction or you'd get sticky. I just wear shorts under my dresses and skirts to avoid this
It does really work. My spouse and I both use it for running and it helps a lot. It feels kind of like deodorant, not sticky or greasy.

You Can Keep Your Signature Scent, Even On The Go, With This Refillable Perfume Bottle Spray
Review: "Multi-pack allowed me to pack 4 of my favorite perfumes for travel. Did not leak. Like that they are refillable. Love the colors too. Great to throw in my small purse for a quick refresh. Great to add to gift bags and as a stocking stuffer!" - revena
I used to put rose water in one of these, I have sensitive skin & perfumes irritate it.
Go into small spaces like train or plane without causing allergies please, there are many who find it hard to breathe next to your perfumes 😉 Also if you are trying to maybe impress the opposite sex your body has many scents that already signal them if you are interested and perfumes are blocking those natural signals so that they work quite the opposite really...
The Go-Everywhere Wallet Is Your One-Stop Sollution To Keeping Your Valuables All In One Stylish And Safe Place
Review: "I used this on a trip with cards, tickets, and passport. Held everything in well, fit well in my smallish purse, but was also easy to carry around as it's own entity. I loved having something pretty and sturdy to carry my passport and everything else I needed while we went through the airport and was convenient enough to use as a regular wallet for the rest of the trip." - Bailey Gallup
Every Savvy Traveler Knows A Handy Fanny Pack Is The Only Sollution To A Pickpocketing Problem
Review: "It’s a nice comforting color and very lightweight, making it good for traveling or going outdoors. I sometimes where it cross shoulder and love that it’s versatile. I also have the same Fanny pack in a few other colors but this is one of my favorites!" - Elsa Mou
This is the first location a pickpocket will look for valuables, so don't carry passports or credit cards in there
The ones with the pockets on the backside would work, but that goes for any bag with a pocket on the backside

Keep Your Footprints Green With A Refillable And Filtering Water Bottle
Review: "This water bottle is perfect to take every where you go. Is light weight, makes you environmental friendly, the best is that fits in the car cup holder." - DRMV
Just buy a nalgene bottle. Will last you for many many years, and can take both cold water as well as boiling.
Yes, but those won't filter the water for you. With this you can fill up your bottle anywhere.

Keep Travel Bugs At Bay With Paper Soap Sheets For Clean Hands
Review: "The set includes three individually wrapped packets of lavender soap strips. The soaps had a pleasant faint lavender scent. I would recommend using dry hands to remove the soap strips. I used warm to hot water to melt the strips faster. The strips had a decent lather and washed out cleanly. They didn't leave any residue or dry out my hands." - Elysa

If TSA Is Spoiling Your Hydration Goals, Travel With A Collapsible Wide Mouth Anti-Bottle !
Review: "Very lightweight option for carrying a reusable water container. Ive had one of these anti-bottles for a year. Decided to buy a 2nd one. It folds up real nice with its included carabiner." - Kristina
Or buy a Nalgene bottle cuz you can actually clean those and they aren't going to break and crack like this cheap, plastic thing.
I have something similar. They're not as delicate as you think, and the space savings compared to a Nalgene bottle is ideal. Also, the cap is removable, so it's not difficult to clean.I've taken mine to raves, heavy metal mosh pits, camping, and traveling in a number of different countries, and it still holds up.
Load More Replies...I tried a collapsible bottle, hated it. So now i use my metal one. Works so much better for me.
