Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You’ll Need:
Step1
Focus on convenience as well as excellent neck support when shopping for a travel pillow.
Step2
Choose an inflatable pillow for light and easy packing. These pillows are either self-inflatable or can be blown up by the traveler in just a few seconds. Some inflatable pillows have more than one air chamber so that they can be adjusted to fit any part of the body.
Step3
Choose a pillow containing buckwheat hulls for excellent support molded to the your head or body. These are heavier than inflatable pillows and take up a bit more space, but their benefits may be worth it.
Step4
Make sure the pillow has a removable cover so it can be washed.
Step5
Choose a color from the selection offered.

on 11/2/2007 When we spent 12 hours on an airplane, we used Sunshine Pillows. They provided support to the head, and easy to carry since it has a handle. Their website is www.sunshine-pillows.com. Another note, unlike many cheap ones that don't provide the needed support, and made using cheap labor, this one is made in the USA.

on 1/2/2007 Here is some Reviews from customers that bought the SkyRest Travel Pillow.
Got the pillow on time at the end of Sept via FedEx.
Worked great -
"I purchased the Skyrest pillow as an air traveler that NEVER can find
a way to sleep on airplanes. In anticipation for a long overnight
flight to Europe where it was imperative that I be fully functional the
next day, I purchased the Skyrest and it made all the difference in the
world. It only took twenty seconds to inflate, it fit perfectly on the
tray table in front of me and provided the optimal sleep position,
allowing me to pack in five and a half hours of much-needed sleeping time.
I give it five out of five stars."
Many thanks,
S.S. from Atanta, GA

on 10/24/2006 I had a similar problem with U-shaped pillows but I found a travel pillow called ezysleep. It's got a device at the front that supports the head, so it doesn't drop forward while you're sleeping. They also do a kids travel pillow that we use for our kids whilst they are in their car seats and in their push chairs. I was always looking over my shoulder at my little boy as his head flopped around in that car seat! It's solved that. My wife even uses hers to read in bed. Well worth a look but you can only get them on the web.
