Items flight attendants never travel without revealed

Flight attendants have shared their holy grail items that they always pack with them before travelling. 

In a thread on Reddit, a soon-to-be cabin crew member reached out to experienced colleagues and asked what they take with them on all of their trips.

They asked, “I’m curious as to what object or objects you take with you when you fly, whether it’s job related, leisure related, or something you just find useful to have on you.”

“Bonus questions: which product/s would you recommend for a new FA to get? What brands or specific items would you always recommend going for or steering clear of?”

A group of cabin crew members shared their must-pack items, with a lot of people offering no-brainer items like power banks and phone chargers, however others were much more interesting and unusual.

One explained that they never fly without a tube of superglue, in case they need to quickly repair anything while away.

They wrote, “I always take superglue.”

“It’s way more durable and useful than you’d expect.”

“I glued the entire sole back on a shoe and it lasted the rest of a trip in a salty, snowy Canadian winter.”

A lot of the other suggestions were, perhaps unsurprisingly, food related, with home comforts important when on the road.
