For how often I fly (more than 15 times a year), I’ve never owned a neck pillow — probably because I always manage to nab a window seat. But luck wasn’t on my side for my most recent trip to Europe. By the time I purchased my ticket to Rome, all of the coveted window seats were taken. I knew I’d be in deep trouble if I didn’t sleep on the red eye, so I ordered the Weershun Travel Pillow, and let me tell you — it was a total lifesaver.
The last-minute purchase arrived at my apartment the morning of my flight (thanks, Amazon Prime!). I was immediately impressed by the compact size. The pillow neatly rolls up into a convenient storage bag that I easily placed in my backpack. It takes up minimal space, and I had plenty of room left in my bag for books, my laptop, toiletries, an umbrella and more.
Compactness aside, this was hands-down the most comfortable travel pillow I’ve ever rested my head on. It resembles a soft cone you’d put on a dog — rather than having an opening to slide your head in, it wraps completely around your neck with an adjustable closure for the best fit possible. The pillow itself is also beautifully soft, thanks to its memory foam interior that offers plenty of support.

I wrapped the pillow around my neck right after takeoff, fell asleep almost immediately and stayed asleep for the entirety of my eight-hour flight. My neck didn’t flop around throughout my slumber, and I awoke feeling well-rested — no neck kinks, stiffness or pain. I was ready to start exploring Italy.
After relying on this neck pillow for just one long flight, I don’t think I could ever travel without it. Luckily, I can tell it will last a long time. The pillow is machine washable, so it’s easy to keep clean. Plus, it maintains its softness throughout each cycle.
With the Weershun Travel Pillow in my carry-on, I’ll feel energized no matter where I am in the world. Yes, even after a long red eye. Now the real question is, where should you travel once this arrives at your doorstep? Time to book your next flight!
