Love *hotdups* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other TH-camr can show off bags in as much detail as you.
HI @dianafrances6880 I'm always trying to think of new ways to make my travel easier and this one was really a game-changer on the plane, Thanks for the comment!!
The airline seat-back pockets are really useless. I’ve used the thingy that has part of it covering the tray, then the lower half drops down and provides 3-4 pockets. That works just fine for me. But I can see how people with longer legs would be bothered by it. That little pocket holder/pouch you show looks very good! Plus, I was not familiar with that little toothbrush that does so much. I definitely need to check that out. Thanks! New subscriber.
Hi @bettyparker3317 Glad you liked the little toothbrushes, You can get them almost anywhere and they are so handy, I am tall so that is why I kept trying to think of a good way to keep that stuff in that front pocket (after I wipe it down). Thanks for the subscription!
@@PerriesPassport lol I am 5-2, and my legs are short even for that 😆 it’s a good thing for airplane seats (not the overhead bins!) but that’s about all. Thanks again for the great hacks!
HI @melanies.6139 The best part is that it comes in so many sizes that it fits almost any bag. I just used it on a flight and the bag worked great in the pocket. I took a photo, but I can't post it in the comments, which is a shame.
Hi @noellowery6542 Thanks! Oddly enough I just read this article about how gross those pockets are and it is so easy to keep this bag clean. Check out the article: www.travelandleisure.com/travel-tips/airplane-seatback-pockets?hid=8f0c4a745bfd78fb9e856d70435e9b296444cd62&did=14635259-20240920&PM&lctg=8f0c4a745bfd78fb9e856d70435e9b296444cd62&lr_input=9f77a60f50c7a069e8a7b90cedb82e8c42486d2ba53334a0db57a4d7ca4bcdcb
Add melatonin, Advil, munchies, doggy poop bags for garbage, a mini flash light when the lights are out. I used a purse organizer for my last trip and it didn’t fit in the seat pocket. Next trip I’m putting a carabiner on it to hang it.
HI @denise3587 The organizer I chose was specifically small enough for the front seat pocket. I have to ask about the doggy poop bags, Do you take your doggie with you on the plane? Btw, I love the carabiner idea! Well done!
No, I don’t travel with my dog. I just use those size of a bags because it’s a small amount of garbage that I produce. The plane I was on was not a long distance plane so the seat pocket was very small.
I tried Temu for the first time and found a bag similar to this for a $3.57...2 slip pockets on one; the other side has 2 slip pockets, but that side also has 4 small mesh pockets on top of the two slip pocket unit; and 3 zippered compartments the length of the bag. Snaps if you want to compress a bit. Also has 2 little handles. I just grabbed to make the minimum purchase price and I figured I could use it for storing makeup, but now I think it will make a nice "comfort bag." It's black nylon and the sides are slightly padded, too! About 3.5 inches wide, 10.5 W, 6" tall. No key thing, but that's fine.
Hi @secretariatgirl4249 sounds like you have the perfect little bag for a comfort bag. And here is the great thing about it. Once you set it up, it's always ready to go, so once less thing to worry about doing. I just came back from a trip and the only thing I had to refill was the Clorox wipes. You will love it!
What size bag did you buy? Edit: I saw another comment snd you said not yo get bigger than the small. I looked at the measurements and small seems like a good size.
Hi @JD-zt3nr Of course! I'm sorry if I didn't make that clearer, but that is why I forgot to have it from the original bag it was in. It was still in my liquids bag from my last trip.
Hi @reginaa4935 I have so far taken that on BA, Jetblue and Delta and it fits into all of the pockets. EasyJet I had to use it sideways, but it worked and nothing came out. I'll let people know as I use it on other flights. I suggest not getting anything bigger than the small size though.
Great video! Awesome little bag insert. Do you worry about how dirty it gets in the front pocket, and putting back into your personal item once you've landed? I used a gallon size ziploc bag on my last flight, and felt I was bringing all of the pocket crud into my backpack. Suppose I could keep a clean bag in my personal item to transfer the organizer insert into. Just curious. Thanks!
Hi @colleenc5008, So this what I did. Since the bagl is made out of nylon, I wiped the bag down with my Clorox wipes after use and it was good to go. Hope that helps!
I was just thinking why not do both? Put the organizer pouch in a ziplock or silicone bag? I think that's the direction I'm heading. Last year I tried a pouch from Travelon that was supposed to be a seat pouch organizer, but it wasn't quite enough...
@@peggywoods4327 I know the feeling. I tried one of those table organizers and there were two big empty pouches on the outside so everything still ended up as one big mess. Then I started searching for an alternative, and I found this. The best part I can use it in any daily tote, too!
I just used the new and improved bag on a flight, and it worked great!
Love *hotdups* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other TH-camr can show off bags in as much detail as you.
The zippered purse organizer is genius
HI @dianafrances6880 I'm always trying to think of new ways to make my travel easier and this one was really a game-changer on the plane, Thanks for the comment!!
I love the idea! I am a disaster trying to get organized on a plane. This puts everything in the seat pocket. My Hubby will be so impressed!!!🤓
Hi @@valeriehanson5287 I'm glad it's a help. I have to tell you that my hubby counts on that bag as much as I do!
I love this. I am also a ziplock bag in the seat pocket traveler. Lots of great ideas. Thank you!
Hi @bephoebe... I have done the ziplock bag in the pocket, too! I just like the way this organizes things.
i love you so much! I recently just found your *hotdups* and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life.
Love your ideas
Hi @Miamouse3. Thanks! Glad if they help!
Awesome idea. The only things I will add to mine is a ziplock bag for trash disposal and a lip balm for the dry lips.
Hi @houseoflabs300 That is a terrific idea! I'll be adding that to mine!

I love a good pouch. Really. I have many. 🤷♀️ But a pouch with all those pockets? YES. Awesome video. 😊

@@denise3587 The doggy poop bags are a great idea for personal rubbish. I think I will add that to my bag!
I also have a phone stand and charging block in my pouch and an eye mask
Hi @saracollins2377. You can customize this for your needs. There is plenty of room in that bag!
I use my headband earphones as an eye mask also. Dual function item! 😉
Hi @@peggywoods4327 LOL, so do I and I love that you love dual function!! 😺

@marthameyer7918 Thank you very much!
I take a dog dodo bag or an empty pint or quart zipper bag as a small trash bag.
Hi @maryannfite8028 Great idea!
What size bag did you buy?
Edit:
I saw another comment snd you said not yo get bigger than the small. I looked at the measurements and small seems like a good size.
Hi I ended up with the small. It was actually a great size! Hope that helps!
I would add my phone charger.
@lindapark8467 In fact, I actually did that after the fact. So you are 100% correct!
The Tide pen is considered a liquid. It would have to go in your liquids bag until you got through TSA.
Hi @JD-zt3nr Of course! I'm sorry if I didn't make that clearer, but that is why I forgot to have it from the original bag it was in. It was still in my liquids bag from my last trip.
Do you fly many different airlines? Do you know if that pouch will fit most of the airline pockets? Love the pouch idea!
Hi @reginaa4935 I have so far taken that on BA, Jetblue and Delta and it fits into all of the pockets. EasyJet I had to use it sideways, but it worked and nothing came out. I'll let people know as I use it on other flights. I suggest not getting anything bigger than the small size though.
