Travelrest Ultimate Memory Foam Travel Therapeutic, Ergonomic & Patented-Washable Cover-Most Comfortable Neck Pillow-Compresses to 1/4 of its Size (2 Year Warranty)

Product Information

Additionally, I considered the work of Paige Szmodis, who investigated pillow options for the previous version of this article. Made from high-quality silk, all three are soft to the touch, while the travel pillow employs the same hair and skin benefits as the enduringly popular silk pillowcase, so you can really catch some beauty sleep on your travels.

With its U-shaped design, this memory foam pillow prevents lateral movement—your head falling to either side—and features a slimmed flat back so it won’t push your head forward. The pillow’s overlapping ends form a snug cushion that holds your chin in place far better than do the Trtl’s plastic frame or the Travelrest and Cabeau’s chin-facing gap. The Cabeau Evolution S3 is our overall favorite pillow and a particular favorite among both front and side-sleepers. My average trip takes about seven hours between the trains to and from the airport and the plane ride itself. Less a pillow and more a supportive wrap for your neck, this unique design from trtl is ideal if you're short on space and weight in your carry-on luggage – it weighs only 148 grams.Note: These straps may not be compatible with all seat designs and might possibly disturb the person behind you on a flight. While other options may compress into slightly smaller packs, I like this pillow's dense memory foam padding and the Velcro fastener, which allows for a custom fit. I also will add that it would be nice if Travelrest could make the add on cover built into the normal Travelrest pillow. In fact, the designs of short-haul air carriers tend to be less comfortable than larger vessels, so you could argue that there’s even more of a need to keep one in your carry-on for journeys under three hours. If you have a smaller neck and know you find a tighter grip on your neck comforting, the Cabeau may be the way to go.

While the back surface isn’t angled and grippy like the Travelrest, the Cabeau comes with straps to loop around your headrest to keep it in place. If, as with additional cabin luggage and allocated seating, you’re not willing to pay the premium for a high-end travel pillow, this Life Hall option is the best of the budget haul. For our purposes, we consider packed weight, size, and how much effort it takes to pack up these pillows.

If you tend to be a forward-falling head bobber: Consider the Caldera Releaf, which is less travel pillow and more neck brace.

This memory-foam neck-support pillow is highly adjustable, but without a contoured back, it can’t quite sit flush with the headrest.
