I'm sure many of you have heard about and read articles by Johnny Jet with 35K followers. He's a very serious travel blogger about actual travel issues, destinations and modes of transport. He also evaluates travel accessories and tests/evaluates that they in fact do what they say they will do. We, at Pillowpacker Travel Pillows, are proud and pleased to have been selected by Johnny to put one of our pillow models to the test, actually his family all contributed to his final evaluation. We're a micro boutique shop in Ottawa and since 2010 we have made travel comfort our quest, we only make inflatable travel pillows, nothing else and we carefully select Canadian duck and goose down in our small batch production process....in any event this is what Johnny Jet and family said about our pillow:

• Longer stretches when you may want to rest
• Overnight time onboard or a hotel stop, depending on the train
See what a Rockies rail journey is really like, and where a personal travel pillow can be useful along the way.

Down travel pillow looking flat after unpacking? It may simply need time to recover.
Packing can compress the down and shift it unevenly. Before thinking about washing or replacing it:
• Unpack it fully and give it room to expand
• Gently shake and redistribute the down by hand
• Adjust the inflatable core separately if you want to change the firmness
See how to re-fluff a down travel pillow after it has been packed:

Inflatable or memory foam for a long flight? The better fit often comes down to space, firmness and how you plan to use it.
Compare:
• Packing: Foam keeps its shape, while an inflatable option can be deflated
• Firmness: Foam stays consistent; air lets you adjust the feel
• Beyond the flight: Think about how easily each one travels between airports, hotels and other stops

Not all travel pillows are designed for the same kind of trip.
Choosing between the different types of travel pillows comes down to more than shape. Packed size, firmness and where you plan to use the pillow can all change which option makes sense.
Before choosing, compare:
• How much space the pillow takes when packed
• Fixed vs adjustable firmness
• Whether you need it only in transit or at hotels and other stops too
From a memory foam travel pillow to an inflatable travel pillow or a rectangular design, see how the main options differ before your next trip.
