TLDR

  • A flight attendant shared a clever hack for charging a phone without a charger adapter.
  • The trick involves using the USB port on a hotel television.
  • The flight attendant also shared other travel tips, including dealing with light-blocking curtains and cleaning remote controls.

In today's connected world, forgetting a phone charger can feel like a travel disaster. Fortunately, as Croatian flight attendant Esther Sturrus demonstrates, a little ingenuity can go a long way. Sturrus, who has gained a significant following on TikTok for her practical travel advice, recently revealed a simple yet brilliant solution for those moments when a charger adapter is missing: use the USB port on a hotel television.

This practical tip, shared by the 24-year-old TUI and KLM crew member, highlights a common oversight and offers an immediate fix. While not all hotel TVs may provide sufficient power, Sturrus's advice is a lifesaver in many situations, saving travelers the hassle and expense of buying a replacement adapter. Itโ€™s a reminder that sometimes the most effective solutions are the simplest, often utilizing resources already available in our surroundings.

Beyond the charging hack, Sturrusโ€™s other tips, such as using a hanger to fully close curtains and covering the TV remote with a shower cap to combat germs, further solidify her reputation as a go-to source for travel hacks. These insights, shared from her experience in the airline industry, offer valuable, real-world advice that resonates with everyday travelers. For us in Croatia, where tourism is a vital part of our economy, such practical advice is always welcome, empowering travelers to have smoother and more comfortable journeys.
