Alternative to Trtl travel pillow (for long neck)

4 replies

Tried a Trtl and it’s not for me, it doesn’t sit in the right place and my head just falls to the unsupported side. Tried it positioned under my jaw and it just smashes my face.

I have a long neck so I even tried the adjustable version and while it is longer (taller? wider?) it still doesn’t solve the problem of my head falling forward or to the other side.

Horseshoe-shaped travel pillow has the same shortcomings.

I‘ve had the most success leaning forward toward the tray but can’t envision anything that would enable this short of a very tall, firm pillow 🤔 or a Velcro strap suspending my head from the headrest 😀 (Have spent maybe too much time daydreaming about solutions.)

Has anyone managed to find a product that solved this?

My favourite is the Bcozy as you can double it up nicely and it doesn’t push your head forward

Thanks, that might work!

Have you tried Cabeau neck pillows? I got one at an airport when I lost my usual one on a long trip and it’s super comfortable but just a bit too ‘high/tall/long’ for me (and I don’t have a short-neck!)

think mine is poss an evolution plus looking at their website… but they have lots of others

Thank you, that looks great, the shape looks like it would keep your head from lolling around.
