Let’s be honest—there’s nothing chic about feeling cramped or uncomfortable at 35,000 feet. But that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style for the sake of comfort. Whether you’re jetting off to a fashion capital or an exotic hideaway, the perfect travel outfit should feel like a first-class experience all on its own.

So, what’s the secret? It’s all about striking the right balance between relaxed luxury and effortless edge—think plush textures, elevated basics, and accessories that feel as good as they look. Here’s my go-to formula for staying comfortable and stylish in the sky:

Best Outfits for the Flight: How to Travel in Style Without Sacrificing Comfort

A Luxe Pair of Sneakers

Start from the ground up—literally. A great pair of sneakers is non-negotiable. Opt for minimalist, well-structured designs (think leather or suede) in classic shades like white, nude, or black. They elevate your entire look while keeping your airport dash smooth and blister-free.

Relaxed Yet Elevated Bottoms

Swap the stiff jeans for a pair of high-quality sweatpants or relaxed trousers with structure and style. A neutral palette (creams, greys, olives) paired with luxurious textures will keep your look polished and perfectly unbothered.

BASEBALL CAP

If you want to wake up to the beautiful beach view, this is your pick. You are only five minutes from jumping into the sea or renting a surfing board to conquer those waves. If you are interested in some yoga practicing, the staff offers classes, which I have been participating in for quite a long time as well, as the quality is the best you can find in the island.

MY DJI OSMO POCKET 3 OR A CAMERA, WALLET & ACCESSORIES

Perfect for the people who are not afraid of waking up because a monkey is knocking on your window! Okay, maybe it is not that common, but sharing a breakfast with a tailed neighbour is a custom here. Beautiful mountains, breathtaking views and something else will definitely steal your heart.

The Plush Sweatshirt

Your in-flight layer is where form meets function. A soft, oversized sweatshirt with a clean silhouette is the perfect piece to cocoon in while still looking refined. Cashmere or brushed cotton? Even better.
