Almost anywhere you want to travel out of NZ is far away, so being able to travel with good gadgets to take the sting off of long hauls is a must. 

For me the must have gadgets are:

• In ear headphones and ear-plugs that keep out the noise. I love my Shure SCL4-K in ear headphones
• Inflatable pillow to make it more comfortable to sleep on the plane.
• iPad so that I can have my own favourite or want-to-see movies without depending on whats available on the plane, as well as reading books, listening to music and reading my favourite magazines.
• 2 x 6600 mAh rechargeable battery pack to recharge devices on the way to my destination
• Travel adapter for power plugs, so I can plug in my many devices that need charging when I have reached my foreign destination
• Outlet extender, so I can charge lots of devices from one power plug

So what are your life saver gadgets for long travels?
