Très chic travel boutique
Posted by Emma on November 07, 2007 at 04:14 PM
I’m envious of travellers in America and Dubai – they don’t have to suffer the stress and mania of searching for the perfect travel accessories minutes before leaving for the airport. They get to breeze into one of the Flight 001 boutiques instead.
The boutiques, of which there are eight, stock every comfort the style conscious traveller could want under one roof. We’re talking luggage, carry-on approved products, packing aids, gadgets, “aerotherapy” items (like rose-scented paper soap sheets) and those must-haves to make sure you have the most comfortable flight possible (think cashmere blankets and jetfresh kits – ggrrrrrrrrrr).
Although it makes me weep into my keypad to do this, as I’m 3701 miles away from the nearest store, here are the Flight 001 (pronounced flight one) products I want the most:
- The Orla Keily leather shopper ($595): hand luggage nirvana
- No Jet Lag homeopathic remedy ($13): enough for 50 hours of flying and kicks in before you get on the plane
- Silk eye mask ($20): say goodbye to those nasty nylon things
- The aforementioned cashmere blanket ($220): first class comfort in an economy seat
- No Cooties ($9): sprayable essential oils that cleanse and purify the air around you
Whilst we’re on the subject, I really want the Smythson travel wallet too. I’d better start sweet talking Santa.
