The best travel pillow overall is the TRTL travel scarf. I’ve also tested neck pillows and lumbar pillows to find the best travel pillows of 2024.
If you don’t have the bulkhead or a traveling companion to lean against, try a weirder shape. “I’m obsessed with this hideous inflatable golf club,” says Teddy Minford, editor at Fodors.com. “It creates something to lean against even if you’re in the middle seat.”
“My husband kept telling me we needed to get these for our camping trip and I kept telling him he was silly for wanting to pay $20 for this tiny, weird pillow. Well, he bought them anyway and we took them camping, and while I wasn’t the biggest fan then, I became a believer when we took a flight with them and I opened mine up and leaned against my husband to take a nap. I have NEVER … I mean NEVERRR slept as good as I did during that trip with this pillow. Dude. Buy it. So worth it! And if you don’t have a husband to lean it on, become really good friends with the person next to you. Or get a window seat.”
