Things to consider when buying a travel pillow
Packability
The challenge with any type of travel accessory is putting it back in your carry-on after use. These days, travel pillows come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials, and some are easier to use than others. You may notice that your pillow deflates after use. Some can be attached to the handle of a bag for easier transport, while others require more space.
Travel pillows can also be used to reduce back pain, such as the travel-sized lumbar pillow that peoples occasionally use on long car rides. However, if you’re carrying a pillow with you and don’t want to toss it in the trunk of your car or luggage upon arrival, consider how much space to allocate to your travel pillow.
Shapes
U-shaped, flat mini size, and swaddle pillows are the three most common shapes for travel pillows, each with their own pros and cons. These pros and cons depend on your sleeping position when sitting upright (front or side), your comfort level when you have something draped around your neck, and your preference for leaning against a more traditional flat pillow.

If you are allergic to latex or other materials, be sure to check the label before purchasing. Some travel pillows need to be hand washed and line dried, while others can be thrown in the washing machine.
