Happy Monday everyone! We hope you had a wonderful weekend. Yesterday was absolutely beautiful here in NYC, so we tried to spend as much time outside as possible. We did start packing though because we leave for Iceland on Wednesday. We can’t believe that this trip is finally here. It’s going to be absolutely fantastic. We are vlogging our trip over on our YouTube channel, so make sure you are subscribed so you can keep up with our adventures.
On Wednesday Ashley is sharing what she is packing in her suitcase, but in the meantime I am sharing what’s in my carry on bag. We have a 5 1/2 hour flight from NYC to Reykjavik, so I definitely need some entertainment and necessities. Take a peek inside my bag, and let me know if I’m missing any of your carry on items.
iPad / Macbook / Louis Vuitton Wristlet / Canon G7X / GoPro
I always load a ton of music, movies, and books onto my iPad and Macbook that will last me the duration of a long flight. We are also so excited to have our GoPro and Canon with us on this trip so we can film the entire thing.
Dark Chocolate Pretzels / S’Well Bottle / Harvest Snaps / Dried Apples
I can get quite peckish on a flight, so I have to make sure that I have plenty of snacks and water to last me the whole flight. Airport food is rarely worth eating, especially leaving from NYC airports so being prepared is key.
Pamela Barsky Pouch / Wallet / Sunglasses / Case (Target)
I always bring my medicine on the plane with me in case they lose my luggage. This cute pouch fits everything I need. Of course I can’t travel without my wallet, and I love having my sunnies on hand to use as soon as I step off of the plane.
Zipper Pouch (Old) / Lotion / Lipgloss / Passport Cover (Old) / Mints / Eye Mask
The air on planes is quite dry, so I always bring lotion and lip gloss to stay moisturized. Sometimes I get a little nauseous, so mints are a must for me. On any long haul flights I like to put on an eye mask about 30 minutes before landing. It’s a great refresher, especially when you are flying over night which we are.
My backpack is from Everlane and I’m so obsessed with it. It is big enough to fit everything I need, and it even has a pouch that my Macbook and iPad can fit into. There are two pockets on the side that I can fit my sunglasses and a water bottle, as well as a zipper pocket on the front.
Do you have a specific bag you always take on your flights? Let us know in the comments below. We can’t wait to start sharing all of our Iceland adventures. Follow our Instagram and Snapchat for up to date pictures and videos.
