to both save space in her luggage and help her get to sleep during long flights.<\/p>\n<p>Packing and getting comfortable on planes are two of the most stressful parts of going on holiday &#8211; but there could be a single solution to both problems.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

easier.<\/p>\n<p>The cubes save space in suitcases and prevent people from overpacking, while also making it much easier for them to organise their belongings.<\/p>\n<p>However, travel reporter Joey Hadden explained how she has found another practical use for her cubes.<\/p>\n<p>She explained that she always uses the cubes, even if she&#x27;s only travelling with hand

wrote in Insider: &quot;I always travel with packing cubes to save space in my bag, but I recently learned they serve another purpose as a pillow when I&#x27;m travelling on overnight trains and\u00a0red-eye flights.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I fill the cubes with clothing so I can fit as many outfits as possible into my luggage.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;As I tried to get comfortable in a reclining chair on
