Phil told CNN Travel that he often logs the huge number of miles a year due to the programme, adding: “We’re constantly switching countries thousands of miles away from each other.”
He revealed some of his top travel items, which includes the perfect travel backpack, passport holder and notebook.
But one of his handy items is a £19.99 gadget which is ideal for any problems on holiday.
The Geekey Multi-Tool, he said, “looks like a key but has a bunch of tools”.
He rates it highly for any issues you might have on the road, explaining: “For one reason or another you get to a hotel and something is not working.”
He joked: “I can’t tell you how many times it’s helped me open up a nice cold beer.”
Costing £22.99 on Amazon, it has more than 16 different functions.
This includes a bottle and can opener, as well as a ruler, wire stripper, wrench, bike spoke key and screwdriver.
It can also be attached to a lanyard or a keychain so it easily packs into your hand luggage.
It’s been rated highly on Amazon too – more than 3,700 people have given it five stars.
One person said: “Incredibly useful! – I use it every day!”
Another gadget people are using on their travels are AirTags, which they put in their luggage.
The app tracks when your suitcase will appear on the conveyor belt at baggage reclaim – or if it’s still at your departure airport, if you’re unlucky.
Here are some other items people have praised as game changers on holiday, including a £27 drinks holder for flights and a 2-in-1 pillow and blanket.
