Backpack Pillow5
I own two of these Thermarest Compressible Pillows. I take the small pillow backpacking. No more smelly rolled up pants etc. for a pillow. I have a Medium pillow which I take car camping. They both loft up wonderfully if you unroll them as soon as you get to your destination. If towards morning you want more loft, just flip it and drift back to sleep. It is by far the very best backpack pillow I have ever tried! I have hiked 600+ miles on the AT.

A Great In-Flight Pillow!4
I am now visiting England for two weeks and bought this pillow just before my long trip from California. I am not a big fan of airline pillows, but I do like to have a pillow to place in the window of the plane so I can lean against it and sleep during flights.

This pillow does not need to be inflated, and it fits nicely at the bottom of an inflight carry-on bag. It rolls up quite small which is ideal, but comes out a decent size. It is very comfortable and I like the fact that it doesn't need to be inflated. I just "puff" it up a bit with my hands and it expands nicely. I slept on all three flights to England and was very comfortable. I also felt safer, not using a pillow previousy used by other passengers (who might have been sick. There were plenty of sick passengers around me, coughing and sneezing), and I fell into a peaceful, restful sleep in my window seats. Perfect!

When I return home from England, I will be glad to know that I have this pillow with me!

Great Travel / Camping Pillow5
I bought this for a recent trip to Europe, and it did great. The "pillow" the airline provided just wound up in the floor, and wasn't up to the task. I actually slept a decent amount on the flight over, using the thermarest pillow to lean against the window. I'm not sure how well it would do for an aisle/middle seat, though. I also kept it in my backpack for the rest of the trip and it was great for using in trains, buses, etc. If you end up using it in a hotel as an extra pillow, be careful not to forget it, as it is easy to lose sight of under sheets/covers.

I'm sure this would work out very well on a camping trip as well. It is very lightweight and worth its weight for the comfort it provides.
