Even those stretched out in first class are finding their flights all the better with these mile-high must-haves. Technological innovations can improve health and comfort while in the air, and let's not forget about the all-important entertainment perks. New technology in fields away from electronics is also constantly evolving and improving our red-eye and way-too-long-haul flights.

Flying tips are best sourced from those frequent flyers who are constantly jet-setting from one destination to the next. But getting tips on the gadgets that make long-haul flights easier, well, you've come to the right place. Whether you're on a one-way red-eye from New York to Tokyo or have multiple layovers over a few days (godspeed), investing in a few luxury gadgets to make the trip (and subsequent trips) more bearable is a splurge you likely won't regret.
