Right now I have
A black beanie to cover my eyes , more comfortable than eyeshades for me,
Foam earplugs , with a string to attach the 2 of them so the FA can see i have them in.
A face mask i rarely use ,

I just got a foot "cradle" that attaches around the tray table , have not used it yet , normally have used my backpack as a footrest , otherwise my feet will not touch the ground !

What I need :
Something to make the armrest "soft" , I often put the pillow over it , but is there something made to cover the armrest?
Neck rest. I have tried the regular U hoops , a medical foam neck brace , and the fancy brace that you lean your head on and wrap the scarf around your neck.

Do you have any other things to look at ?

Or things that you do , not interested in taking drugs or booze !

Thanks for your ideas on my ramblings
