Carry-On Travel Must Haves in 2022

[@JenniferPerryMyScraproom]

We have the Eddie Bauer jackets (love them!) I place 1 glove inside each zipper pocket and zip it up then squish the jacket back into the pouch. Now my jacket and gloves are together and I do not have to worry about losing them or forgetting them. Packable jackets are one of the best travel purchases I have made.

[@musicman85]

Oo that usb fan looks awesome! I sleep with a fan in the summer when it’s hot at night and you’re absolutely right about having the air circulating and the noise it makes helps to sleep easier!

[@TheWanderingWife]

My husband and I travel internationally a lot, and the AirFly is one of the best things we’ve ever bought! I also use them with AirPod Pros. I love being wireless while watching movies on board!

[@littlemissrachie07]

Yes to Balega socks! My husband is a runner and turned me onto them. Now it’s all our family wears!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Right?! THE BEST.

[@marytusha489]

i had to buy the everywhere bag to go with my carry on Away bag. This is going to work great! Will post after my trip to Israel! I'm so glad you reviewed it. Thanks

[@journeys_with_jen]

This video came to me at the perfect time. I also get so stressed out with the noise on the plane. Love your recommended travel essentials.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I honestly couldn’t believe how much happier I was as a traveler when I started using noise cancellation!

[@kaylaandmarkalan]

So many great items! Our definitely consist of a packable duffel and a small massage gun. That and our new Away carryon! That suitcase is seriously a game changer. For sure will never buy another suitcase again.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I TOLD YOU! DIDN'T I TELL YOU? I did. I totally told you.

[@KRSX]

I love the clip fan idea. I need to get one with a clip now. I have one that is handheld I bought for using at Disney. I use it while sleeping but it falls over easily and wakes me up sometimes. Actually all these ideas I'm looking into if I'm being honest lol. We also only use carryons when traveling and we love it. I should get some bigger bags one day just in case I suppose but it also forces me to make sure I dont over pack.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I own the medium checked bag but I think I've only used it once! And the funny thing is I can check 2 bags for free (Delta credit card perk) and I still don't. I don't like the hassle of baggage claim!

[@janirak.255]

I have the jacket version of your coat and LOVE it! It was really chilly on our last trip and jacket was a super star. Also, I really liked the way the good cinched. I wore it with a ball back and it sat nice and snug on my head.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I’m seriously tempted to get the jacket version too but I really don’t need it. Glad to hear the hood works so well!!

[@caroles1913]

I've watched many of your videos. One of them, you had a small toiletry bag (that I believe you no longer use). I can't find which video it's in! It was black with mesh and a zipper on top.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

That’s the Away Travel small toiletry bag and I still use it!

[@kristensmith80]

I’m super tempted by that coat. My packable down jacket is from Amazon and it’s just not warm enough. Have a great trip!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

thank you, Kristen! I am VERY happy with mine.

[@Belle.898]

Love travel must haves! I have that fan for my Peloton and love it! It's the perfect size!

[@donnamatsuoka6850]

Hello, Love your videos. For your new jacket, get a toggle that will cinch your bag shut for you.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Donna you're a genius! I think I even have one here at the house.

[@rachel0511]

I ❤️ the fan! Purchased it before my last Disney trip on your recommendation and slept so good!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Right? GAME. CHANGER.

[@jennyvanburen3762]

I also only wear Balega socks. Seriously the best. And that Bluetooth thing? Who knew!

[@reneeburich9497]

I love my Ondo socks for my shoes and booties, but I just ordered a couple pair of the Ballega socks for my tennis shoes.

[@catherinefogle9173]

I have the Ondo socks and the Ballega socks and love them both.

[@leannbl9701]

Balega socks are absolutely the best.

[@brendajos]

The socks... THE SOCKS. It makes me a little crazy when people complain about expensive socks but I do remember a time when $16 socks would have set me off. But they are soooo important. Just as important as good shoes. That brand is one of my favorites too. They keep my feet blister free even when facing 20k+ steps. 💜

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Honestly maybe it’s age but I just cannot do cheap socks anymore!

[@brendajos]

@@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge we are about the same age so maybe. 😂

[@jnm5246]

Ooo the color of the Everywhere bag is lovely!

[@michelleklecka5517]

Jen- have you seen Lug Life bags? I love them! So much organization!

[@Liezjeuh]

Ok, I am going to need that usb fan for our cruise next year! :-) I've got the Bose noise canceling headphone(the rose gold ones . I love them!). I don't like the in-ear-phone thingamabobs, they always fall out of my ears or they hurt my ears. So I'll take the clunky headphones :p they do fold up and have a lovely case to put them in so got that covered, but I must admit: what a smart thing, that Airfly thing! Genius :-) I also need to find a good foldable coat like that...putting it on the list! haha :)

[@VanCrane]

I’m a commuter, I have this kind of fan on the train running with my battery bank - life saver in the summer 😅

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

YES totally get this!

[@perky2320]

Hi Jen, loved this video. Could you tell me about the large personal items bag you have for the plain?

[@ldeglian]

I'm excited to try the socks (just ordered a few pairs)! The sagging sock drama makes me crazy! Also, I tend to get blisters when at Disney no matter what shoes I'm wearing and I'm wondering if it could be my socks and not the shoes so excited to give these a try!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Yes there’s a strong chance that’s it! Hope this solves it for you!

[@trouble0702]

i love my airfly and used them for my denmark trip :P also you can plug them into your switch etc. :P

[@CrysNov18]

Thanks for sharing! Sooo informative! Just picked up the Lands End packable jacket and the ifly pro 👍🏼

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I you are ver happy with both!

[@kathleenabell5933]

Great items and tips! Love the stocks and fan!

[@d.a.ballou9740]

Pretty nice Jen! I hope you have/had a nice weekend trip! 😁👨‍🚒

[@dawnturpin]

Balega socks are a MUST HAVE

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Game changer!

[@Stormbrise]

I would love to sleep with a fan, especially in the summer. However, my husband cannot stand the noise and always turns the thing off on me. If I have a window open he closes it. It drives me insane. I sleep with a window cracked even in the winter here in Denmark. That coat could double as a blanket or a pillow. I want one of those Bluetooth adapters for my Sony wireless noise cancelling headphones. Every in ear headphones I ever tried always fall out of my ears, and I am not about to pay a couple of hundred bucks to see if apples products are any better. I am also autistic, so noise cancelling headphones are a must. I am learning to have them on with something playing, so I can study. I have learned here in Denmark that quiet study is pretty impossible in libraries since they are allowed to talk in them.

[@lindakasoff2323]

Love Balega socks.

[@lisaborsi3092]

I love Balega and Bombas socks!

[@Chelle99]

Bought that airfly before I even finished the video. Taking kid 1 back to ATL soon, need that.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I hope you love it!

[@brendakrause5639]

Are the straps slash proof? I would probably lose the cap for the Airfly.

[@1DawnMarie1]

We don't have any big trips planned upcoming but man do I want to try those socks!!!

[@amberh5010]

Quite a few things I’ve been searching!! Great products!!! I’ve been searching for socks! I like the lip on those, too! I hate when my shoe rubs my heel and that looks like it is helpful!

[@trishsp3160]

Thanks for these reviews! Keep them coming!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

will do, Trish! Thank you for the encouragement!

[@donnabaardsen5372]

Love that jacket, Jen. Everything about it. As for the socks: my feet are extremely narrow. Do they have bulk, or are they thin. I need bulk. As usual, terrific tips.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

They are in between! Not thin but not super thick like wool either.

[@jeanreppy3426]

Jen...the link for the fan...is the socks...could you correct?....I wish the bag came in more colors🤷‍♀️...Thanks😊

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

FIXED!

[@karenlockhart790]

What breed of dog is that? Sorry I'm paying more attention to the dog. 🙂

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

He’s a brindle pit bull! He’s a rescue and just the best dog ever

[@karenlockhart790]

@@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge I thought he was a pit, I have 2 pits. One is mixed with something else and the other is all pit, he's a big boy! Yours is so cool looking!

[@TheLauren1113]

The air fly looks really cool. I need this.

[@lindamiddleton6785]

Hey Jenn, which size backpack do you have from Away travel? There seem to be 3 sizes.

[@vanessa1474]

You don’t have your Proof of Vaccination on an app? In Australia, ours is linked to our WR Code Check In App

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Vanessa we don’t and it drives me nuts. Some states have it set up but mine doesn’t. It’s very annoying.

[@vanessa1474]

@@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge Oh dear :(

[@NeeshJ]

Do you know if the crossbody has the RFID pockets? And slash resistant straps?

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

It does not.

[@Mrjoes1100]

This is so helpful ! I haven’t flown in yrs and will be flying soon. I never knew carry on could be so convenient. I’m curious do all airlines allow carry on and personal items for free or do I need to be prepared to pay a fee ? Thanks so much for this video !!

[@malloryconnor4550]

Thanks for the reviews. I think I have found my sister’s birthday present. (Air fly)

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I hope she loves it as much as we love ours!

[@Borgkn]

Amazing info Jen, as ALWAYS! Thank you so much! Have you tried Feetures socks? I wonder how they compare to these? I’ve been meaning to try them, so this is encouraging.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I have and I like them too but these are quite a bit thicker and more comfy.❤️

[@allielouderback6893]

Love the tips! Were you able to get a discount code from Away? I haven’t been able to find one anywhere!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

No and they're not giving me one either. They may be moving away from that?

[@danuelliaramdeen7373]

Great video enjoy ur trips.

[@nantravels]

WOW ! Thank you !

[@blueberryfrog894]

oooh, travel must haves are almost as much fun as packing videos! Thank you!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

My pleasure!! So glad you liked it!

[@alexisodonahue3858]

Are the straps of the small bag slash proof?

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I'm honestly not sure but I don't think so.

[@dwalker6868]

Thank you

[@deannas1515]

Try Darn Tough socks.

[@laurie6123]

Is that coat water resistant?

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Yes

[@majorhollingshead5906]

Love them. ❤️😘

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Thanks, Major! Me, too. These are seriously things I must have. I don't just say that I promise . . LOL

[@transformedics7104]

I am the type of person who needs everything attached. I can't tell you how many times I have lost a phone, wallet, keys. I can only purchase crossbody bags and my bad luck losing items has ended 😂😂

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Yes I get this!

[@constancecherry3996]

A dog how cute

[@janicehanzel5802]

Your Belleoy bag doesn't seem to be RFID....

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Well my husband who is an airline pilot has said for years that’s more marketing than anything. He feels if that were a real threat they would issue those to flight crews. But yup if that’s what you need this isn’t your bag.

[@janicehanzel5802]

@@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge Good to know...thanks

[@singingkatlol]

I have one of those fans, and they’re great in the park in the blazing sun. More powerful than what most ppl use in the parks

[@beccaschlomann7592]

I bought that short jacket version of the coat you have and yes, it’s great! Even the shorter version is surprisingly long. It hits be low on the hips and I’m just right at average height at 5’5”. It’s going to be so nice for things like cool mornings or evenings at Disney and for traveling in and out of JFK. It always seems funny to need a heavy jacket just to and from the airport, but when it’s winter, I can’t manage without something.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

YES this exactly. Travel is stressful enough I don't need to add being cold to the mix!

[@seanjudge]

This is awesome...but is there any way you could show us all the things while silently staring at the camera. Just so many WORDS! #callbackhumor #sarcasmfont #totallyjoking

[@catblue6393]

👍🏻

[@lindamiddleton6785]

Hey Jenn. Which size backpack do you have from away travel? They seem to have 3 sizes.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Mine is the original and they actually don't make it anymore. The closest seems to be the largest of the three but double check the dimensions to be sure it's still personal item sized?
