The Trtl Pillow Plus takes the brand's scarf-style design and adds the one thing the original lacked: height adjustment. Inside the fleece wrap sits a patented support frame that rests along the side of the neck and under the jaw, and two dials let you press and turn to extend or shorten it, so tall and petite travelers can set the support to fit. Trtl says the support holds the head and neck in an ergonomic position, which is what you want when the seat stays upright for ten hours. The pillow weighs 9 oz (254 g) and measures 8.7 x 8.7 x 3.6 inches, so it packs far smaller than a U-shaped foam pillow, and it ships with a water-resistant carry bag and carabiner. The cover is hypoallergenic fleece and the internal support comes out so the wrap can go in a cold machine wash. The list price is $74.99; it was $52.49 on sale when we checked, and returns are open for 100 days.
Who it is for
Long-haul flyers of any height who want firm chin and neck support that does not push the head forward.
