We've all been there. You're trying to sleep on a long flight, but there is literally no way to get comfortable enough to catch some zzz's. It's one of the worst parts of traveling, but luckily, we may have just found a unique solution courtesy of former Bachelor Matt James' TikTok. He posted a vid of his girlfriend Rachael Kirkconnell using the coolest inflatable travel pillow, and well, consider me influenced.

So what makes this particular travel accessory so special? Glad you asked! When it's not blown up, the travel pillow rolls up compactly and can be tossed in your bag or even strapped to your luggage handle. This makes getting through the airport and onto the plane with all your stuff much, much easier. Ahem, allow Rachael to demonstrate:

The game-changing pillow Rachael's using is the TRAVELREST Ultimate Travel Pillow, which you can snag on Amazon for about $30 rn.

I've tried a ton of other neck pillows (you know, the plush U-shaped ones), and while they're comfortable, they take up a lot of space. And who wants another thing to lug through the airport, you know? On top of travel ease, the pillow's unique design allows you to use it to support your neck and get comfy even in the dreaded middle seat. You can wear it across your torso or tuck it in by your side, depending on what's most comfortable for you.

If Bachelor stars aren't convincing enough to sway you, consider this ~glowing~ review from one Amazon customer, who shared, "These are FANTASTIC!!!! We took them on a trip overseas and were able to get some solid sleep with them. Would buy this again & again and absolutely recommend as a #1 must-have for overseas/long flights. I like it so much that I plan on giving these pillows as gifts to traveling family members."

Another bonus: if you're so peacefully asleep that you start drooling a little bit (sorry, but it happens!), the pillow is easy to wash. Considering it's just $30, you're gonna want to add this to your cart before it goes mega-viral and sells out.
