Packing for a trip can be a daunting task, especially when faced with the dreaded baggage fees imposed by airlines, particularly those notorious low-cost carriers.
Fear not, intrepid explorer, for we have unearthed a travel hack so ingenious, so subtle, that it might just be the ultimate solution to your luggage woes. Prepare to be amazed as we reveal the sneakiest trick in the book (or pillow, in this case).
Say hello to your new best friend: the neck pillow. While it's commonly known for providing comfort during long flights, this humble travel companion has a hidden talent that might just save you a pretty penny.

You see, airlines generally allow passengers to carry a neck pillow onboard. But here's the twist: instead of using it solely for support, why not transform it into a secret stash for your extra belongings?
Influencer Alba Soriano has spilled the beans on this clever trick, sharing her insight on Instagram. Her suggestion? Fill that pillow with small items like socks, underwear or accessories instead of air. By doing so, you maximise space without raising any eyebrows.
It's a brilliant disguise, and the soft, compact material ensures your pillow maintains its original shape, keeping your secret safe and you nice and comfy.
Now, there are many different types of neck pillow on the market. Most are either inflated with air or filled with squishy material like microbeads so remember, if you're going to try this hack, go for the one with beads.
When selecting items for your pillow stash, opt for mouldable pieces made of flexible fabric. Steer clear of rigid items like jeans, which will give your pillow a lumpy appearance.
And if you don't want to get the needle and thread out, sites like Shein and Amazon now sell specialised pillows designed for this very purpose, featuring long, lightweight constructions with full-length zippers. These pillows are not only discreet but also incredibly affordable.
By using this ingenious pillow hack, you'll have more room for those extra outfits and souvenirs without breaking the bank. So, go ahead and give it a try – your neck pillow just became your secret travel ally.
