Seasoned travel expert reveals her most GENIUS tried-and-tested hacks for long-haul flights that she says will make EVERY journey a breeze

A travel expert has revealed some of her favorite plane hacks for passengers taking long-haul flights.

Lindsay Silberman, who splits her time between New York and Florida, used TikTok to share her top tips for people on the go.

She recommended keeping a “bag within a bag” for the essentials, but also promoting compression stockings, electrolyte packs, face and lip masks and noise-canceling headphones.

The content creator, who has visited 63 countries, was quickly inundated with praise from other social media users.

She explained: ‘I pack a duffel bag as my personal item and inside I keep a pouch with everything I need, easily accessible’

In the clip, which has been viewed more than 5.2 million times to date, Lindsay quickly launched into her list of top tips.

Demonstrating with her own luggage, she began, “I like to call this the bag within a bag.

“I pack a duffel bag as my personal item and inside I keep a small bag with everything I need, easily accessible, so you don’t have to dig through your bag every time you need something.”

Then she continued, “If youyou are taking a long-haul flight and you’re not using compression stockings, you’re doing it wrong.

“Personally, I just don’t like the aesthetic of the ankles and that’s why I like compression stockings.”

The avid traveler then shared yet another hack as she poured electrolyte powder into her water bottle.

‘On a long-haul flight I don’t like having to pee every five seconds. That’s why I always take electrolyte sachets with me – they keep me hydrated without having to drink like a liter of water and it also balances out the wine,” she joked.

But Lindsay didn’t stop there with her insights as she next pulled out her face and lip masks.

Then the content creator continued, “If you’re on a long-haul flight and you’re not using compression stockings, you’re doing it wrong.”

She said: ‘I prefer not to look like a feral worm when I land after a long-haul flight, so I always use a nice sheet mask.’

The content creator said she performs her beauty routine – which includes a lip mask – even in economy class, adding that she doesn’t care what other passengers might think.

For Lindsay’s latest hack, she explained, “If you travel a lot or have an annoyingly loud coworker, get the Bose noise-canceling headphones.” They will change your life.’

Lindsay proudly captioned the post: “Shameless masking on planes since 2012.”

Her video was quickly flooded with comments as followers thanked her for the helpful tips.

One person wrote: ‘My family makes fun of me for packing bags #feelingunderstood,’ and Lindsay replied: ‘They’re clearly not on our level of *strategy*’
