Travel isn’t just about the destination, it’s about the journey; but when it comes to air travel increasingly that journey has gotten less comfortable. With long security lines and ever shrinking airplane seats there is truth in the economy class moniker “cattle class”. With a little planning and the right accessories even those of us in the back of the plane can reclaim a bit of the luxury of air travel.
Meet Jet&Bo.
This post is sponsored by Jet&Bo but as always all opinions are my own.
Jet&Bo offers a range of well crafted accessories to make travel more luxurious. Featuring a finely curated selection of accessories including stylish water bottles, garment folders to keep your clothes wrinkle free and a variety of lush cashmere items (I personally have my eye on their ultra chic cashmere travel wrap) that make your journey more comfortable.
Jet&Bo recently sent me a couple of their Economy Class Rebellion Luxury Amenity Kits to try out and they arrived just in time for my overseas trip to Morocco and Portugal (which, if we’re counting, involved a total of six flights over three continents).We received both women’s and men’s amenity kits for Steve and I to try on our flights. Shipping is free and I received my order from Jet&Bo in two days flat.
Each Economy Class Rebellion Luxury Amenity Kit features a stylish leather carrying case containing items to make you journey a lot more comfortable. Both kits come with 100% cashmere socks and mulberry silk eye masks (any rebellion that involves cashmere and silk is one I can get behind), while the women’s kit has Dermologica’s Ultracalming Facial Mist and the men’s kit has Demologica’s Multivitamin Hand Cream to combat the dry cabin air.
Our longest flight of the trip was the overnight transatlantic flight from Newark to Munich. As soon as we settled in I kicked off my shoes and slipped on my cashmere socks and my feet were surrounded in pure coziness (we’re talking cashmere here folks and really, does it get any better than that?). After the in-flight dinner the lights dimmed and it was time to get some rest. Now, I’ve always been one to use an eye mask when flying overnight but have always fallen into a bit of a Goldilocks scenario. The band was too tight or didn’t adjust,the mask was a bit scratchy or did not have enough coverage allowing light to come in; and let’s not talk about how my hair looked afterward. The pure silk eye mask from Jet&Bo was different, the band adjusted easily, left no indents in my hair and blocked the light out completely, not to mention just how luxurious it felt to have silk against my face. After waking a few spritzes of my Dermologica facial mist and I was good to go. It’s amazing how much these extra little creature comforts left feeling me more human after a 7.5 hour flight.

These looks so soft and luxurious, what a shame I’m not able to enter. But with Christmas coming up I can always make a wish 🙂
Mel and Marcus says
Anything that makes an economy flight more comfortable is always great, especially a long haul flight. Glad to see they have got a men’s kit as well as a woman’s version.
Bella says
Such a pity I can’t enter the giveaway given that I live in Europe. However, I’m glad I was able to find out about them through your articles, and I would definitely try them if I had the opportunity.
Cathy says
The women’s kit has Dermologica’s Ultracalming Facial Mist, it’s a must travel kit, ultracalming sound soothing. I would love to join if I’m a resident of Canada or America. When traveling, I always have my must on hand necessity kit. Sometimes, it saves us from a burden or anything unwanted on the flights or trips.
Amy says
I love this! I was on two flights last week and would loved to have had this. I’m pinning so I’ll remember for my next trip!
Kirstie says
Those accessories look classy. Truth is, I’ve been looking for a travel kit because it can be quite a handful to keep on preparing accessories every time I travel.One struggle for me is that I have to transfer my things to something travel size. Sometimes, those little containers in department stores are not even durable. I’d like some cashmere socks too! 😀
Aleah says
I am flying for 42 hours total starting tonight, from the Rep of Georgia to the USA. I wish I had this, as I will be flying economy all the way! I feel the same with the eye mask, I just can’t get comfortable. And I would have loved the facial mist, too. Lucky you!
Indrani says
I can imagine the comfort and warmth. These are must have travel accessories.
All the best to participants!
Rosemary says
Love the idea of these travel accessories, especially as more airlines are cutting back in the economy sections. Great quality products and the cashmere wrap sounds perfect for a long trip. I’ll give the contest a go 🙂
sherianne says
Never even occurred to me it was possible for an eye mask to actually fit and not leave band marks in my hair! This sounds like a great stocking stuffer
Paige Wunder says
