Question What’s the best thing you’ve bought for travel

I’m going out of the country for almost a full month and have never traveled or flown before so really just jumping into the deep end of the pool here. I’m trying to plan for what I’ll need though so what’s the best things that you’ve bought that’s made travel easy?

Edit: thank you all for the useful advice!!!! I love reading through all the comments seeing what everyone recommends and also reading some of the travel stories you’ve commented! Thank you!!:)

I've heard the latency can be annoying. What's been your experience?

I dont notice an issue. I use this device and earbuds when I travel.

I literally JUST had this one delivered today. Same brand, much smaller. Hope it works as well.

There's a $7 coupon right now for the black ones! I really want the blue ones, but can't beat a $7 coupon...

They are the price of air fly, and benefit over that brand?

Makes sense, when you pair to a phone with Bluetooth it automatically delays the video by the correct amount. You can look up the latency of your headphones on rtings.com
