Whether you’re an expert business traveller, or you want to travel like one, these ten travel essentials will help you on your way. Here’s what the Clearview team would suggest you take on board:
Hand sanitiser
Planes, airports and hotels are not known for their outstanding cleanliness, and the last thing you want when you are travelling for business is to pick up a bug and miss the important meeting – or trip, altogether.
Compression socks
If your flight is a long haul, it’s always recommended to wear flight socks to ease discomfort and reduce the risk of blood clots that can occur from frequent long trips.
International power adaptors
It’s worth investing in proper quality power adaptors to make sure your devices work well when travelling to different countries.
First aid kit
Plan and pack plasters, paracetamol and saline solution. You never know when you might need it!
Water bottle
Stay hydrated and prevent jet lag by carrying a water bottle with you at all times. You can take an empty bottle and fill it up after you get through security.
Travel wallet
Nothing eases travel anxiety quite like being organised. Keep all of your essential travel documents in one, easy to access place.
Travel repair kit
Pack super glue, a needle and thread, spare buttons, safety pins and a zip tie. You’ll be glad you packed these if a zipper, button or item of luggage breaks when you’re on the go.
A good quality pair of headphones
There will be times when you are travelling when you need to shut out the background noise and concentrate on a business phone call, writing an email, or simply enjoying your music.
Local currency
Many busy executives sometimes forget the simplest things. Always take some local currency with you as you can never be sure how easy it will be to exchange money when you arrive at your destination.
An envelope
A simple envelope can be one of the most helpful things on your business travels, perfect for holding receipts to claim back any expenses you might need to make.
