Packing a travel pillow in a carry-on

A travel pillow takes space, but a few tricks keep it from taking over your bag.
Here are ours.
Clip it on
Attach the Foam Travel Neck Pillow to the outside of your bag with a strap or clip of your own.
It then stays in reach.
Stuff it
Use the middle of the pillow to hold socks or a scarf, if it will fit.
Do not overfill.
The roll
The Neck Roll Pillow is about 10 in long.
It can sit along the side of a bag or travel as a small bolster.
Keep it clean
Keep the pillow in a cloth bag or a spare pillowcase.
Spot clean when you get home.
Before and after the trip
Check that the pillow fits your bag before you leave. Attach the pillow on the outside of your bag where it will not get squashed. At the end of the trip, wipe it with a damp cloth and let it air. Spot clean if needed, and follow the label on the cover. Store it in a cloth bag or a spare pillowcase. Free US shipping starts at $35, and all sales are final. Check your strap or clip again before your next trip, and keep the pillow where you can reach it. A bag with an outside loop makes this easy.
