Traveling is fun —but sometimes, it’s a necessity for work. Company trips can take you to a big city, a rural retreat or an international destination. Regardless, you need to be ready with the business travel essentials. What should be on your packing list for a business trip? Here are the 12 things you need.
1. KAOBAN Passport Wallet
International trips require a passport, so you must have yours ready. This KAOBAN passport wallet makes organization easy because you can put your passport, driver’s license and credit cards in one place. You’ll have each form of ID ready to go at check-in — plus, there’s even a compartment for your vaccine card.
2. SwissGear Sion Expandable Carry-On Spinner Luggage
Packing for a trip can be challenging because you want to feel prepared without overdoing it. You must also comply with the weight limit for carry-ons, depending on the airline. For example, Frontier Airlines says carry-ons must be 35 pounds or less.
Make life easier with expandable spinner luggage from SwissGear. This bag is lightweight, scuff-resistant and ergonomically designed for men’s business travel essentials. It’s easy to push, pull and carry whenever needed.
3. GDEOUP Travel Neck Pillow
Plane trips can be long and uncomfortable. However, they’re faster and more efficient than the mishaps you get from road trips, so they’re best for business trips. Make your airplane ride more comfortable with the GDEOUP Travel Neck Pillow. This pillow has memory foam and an ergonomic design to make rest much easier. Take it on planes, buses, trains or even long car rides for enhanced rest.
4. MZOO Sleep Eye Mask
Sleep should be a priority to ensure you feel rested during your work duties, so make your environment as conducive as possible. Add the MZOO Sleep Eye Mask to your work trip packing list — it has memory foam and top-quality fiber fabric without pressuring your eyes. Use it for sleeping, yoga or meditation while on your business trip.
5. Flents Foam Ear Plugs
Some people enjoy the natural sounds of plane rides, whereas others need silence to fall asleep. Ear plugs get the job done by completely blocking outside noise from infiltrating your ears, but they can be uncomfortable. Try these Flents Foam Earplugs for long-lasting, soft protection with a noise reduction rate of 33 decibels.
6. Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones
Sleep is a popular hobby on planes, but you’ll need to find something to do super long flights. How would you spend an 18-hour flight from New York City to Singapore? Get a pair of Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones to catch up on your favorite shows or listen to music without being bothered. These are essential travel accessories for men because they immerse you in another world with excellent noise-cancellation technology.
7. Anker 533 Wireless Power Bank PowerCore 10k
Phones, computers and tablets should be on your business travel essentials list, but this checklist should also include the Anker 533 Wireless Power Bank. Your gadgets are your lifeline, so you’ll need a portable charger to ensure they have enough battery. This Anker device has high-speed charging for your phone and tablet — up to 18W of power.
8. MATEIN Mlassic Travel Laptop Backpack
Charging your electronics is crucial, as is protecting them while on the go. This MATEIN Mlassic Travel Laptop Backpack is ideal for most laptops and Macbooks, with room for 16-inch devices. The backpack is lightweight and durable with ventilated padding, reducing sweat in warmer climates. Plus, the anti-theft pocket protects your most valuable items from thieves.
9. MINGTONG Travel Adapter
One thing you may forget when making your packing list for a business trip is electrical outlets in other countries. The U.S., U.K., European Union (EU) and other areas require different plugs, so you need to be mindful. Bring a MINGTONG Travel Adapter to ensure you can charge your electronics — this device has USB ports and a surge protector to protect all your devices.
10. Cremo Original Shave Cream
Travel accessories for men should include things that make you look your best. First impressions mean a lot for your associates, so shave to improve your hygiene and looks before big meetings. Cremo Original Shave Cream fulfills this need by ensuring a close shave without leaving nicks and razor burn. Plus, you’ll smell fresh after shaving.
11. Clarks Men’s Tilden Cap Oxford
Meetings and conferences will put you on your feet all day, making comfortable shoes a priority for men’s business travel essentials. Get a pair that looks classy while supporting your feet, such as the Men’s Tilden Cap Oxford from Clarks. These shoes have premium leather and stretch gore panels to fit easily. Additionally, they have a thermoplastic rubber outsole to make your feet comfortable.
12. Owala FreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle
Business trips mean you have a lot going on, so it may be easy to forget your hydration. Drinking water is essential for staying sharp all day, so bring an Owala FreeSip bottle wherever you go. This convenient bottle has triple-layer insulation to keep your beverage hot or cold all day, and the FreeSip spout makes it easy to drink when you open the bottle. The size is customizable, so pick the most convenient fit for your bag.
