May I suggest a N95 respirator mask that will actually block the flu virus and other nasty things. It's still soft like a dust mask but much more effective (found at Rite Aid)! 2 to a pack, one for the way back. Plus with no one knowing or caring that you should cover your orifices when you cough or sneeze, it's a must. Those tiny snot particles travel about 4-6ft in front of you and a very fast rate.

Water is a must! Buy the large bottle, the dry gross air on the planes dehydrates you (also making you more likely to catch something). For drinks cart-get juice.

Snacks and antibac wipes/gel before you eat them. I bring a healthy meal w/dessert with me. You feel so much better having a non-overly salted tasteless greasy meal than salty snacks.

Always nice to have a brush and some face wipes, lip balm and something to freshen up the mouth. Before landing, visit the bathroom to freshen up.

Yes to books, magazine and music! Don't count on the airlines equipment working-they can't fix it mid-flight.

I've purchased similar frames but larger at IKEA. That's probably where she got them. I think they were about $15/ea

Love the long skinny desk idea! I'm using my filing cabinets as the legs to my current desk but when I move, I'm doing this!
