Whilst filming my TV show and travelling internationally for shoots and events it's important that whilst flying I get as much sleep as possible and look well rested on arrival (because I'm usually straight to work). This is especially important if you are flying on an overnight flight. So with that been said I have got my hand luggage packing down to a fine art, to enable me to have a comfortable and sleep-ful flight. Carry on case! I always travel with a carry on piece of luggage, no matter how short the flight. For sure there are some essentials you will need that you don't want to pack into your check in luggage. For example, camera, lap top and a few beauty essentials. I love my Louis Vuitton carry on, for sure its expensive but in my opinion it's a timeless investment. Music to my ears. No matter how good inflight entertainment is on the plane I always make sure I have my own music and movies to hand. Prior to my flight I always download an album, film and tv series to make sure i have enough entertainment, especially for those long haul flights. Having good head phones or ear phones is essential. My favourite earphones at the moment are in rose gold, they are really light and don't hurt my ears if I have been wearing them a while. It's also important to make sure all your electronics are fully charged before flying. Nobody likes a dying battery. Just to be safe also take a fully charged portable charger too!!! Sleep kit! In order to sleep I have a sleep kit which I always pack with me. This consists of an eye mask, ear plugs (if you have sat next to a crying baby on a flight you will understand why these are an essential) and a pashmina or scarf. I know a lot of these are provided on flights but I like to have my home comforts with me to be able to relax on the flight that little bit easier. Silk eye mask and cashmere blanket is a must too. 66 JUNE, 2016
