The gadget helps your body recover from the hours spent in the ear-popping pressure of the plane cabin.

Simon told : "I absolutely need a humidifier for my skin after a long plane ride."

The plug-in humidifier uses tap water and has a working time of up to 12 hours.

It comes in a range of stylish colours and is the size and weight of a Coke can - easily fitting into your luggage.

The gizmo hardly makes any noise, so it will not keep you up when you are battling jet lag.

Another flight attendant said: "This has saved me on many layovers in dry hotel rooms.
