A few months ago, I started flying weekly for my job, which means frequent 6:00 am flights. Needless to say, I have to catch up on sleep in flight. I felt a bit like Goldilocks trying out a different neck pillow every couple of weeks, until I tried the Therm-a-Rest Down Pillow. I was a bit skeptical, as I had not had the best of luck with any of my previous options.

The Down Pillow is very compact and easily fits in my backpack. When I feel I need just a little more support, I place my scarf or down jacket inside the “pocket.” It’s easy to adjust to the right fit and support to help lull me into a somewhat state of unconsciousness that I am ever seeking in those early morning flights.

BOTTOM LINE

I now have a few other neck pillows rolling around the back of my car, but this one is my weekly travel buddy!
